Dbg
This parameter controls how much logging the Distributed SA will do. It can be set
to a number between one and seven, where one indicates no logging and seven
includes informational and debugging messages. To change the Dbg setting for
Distributed SA, find the line in qlogic_sa.conf that reads Dbg=5 and change it to a
different value, between 1 and 7. The value of Dbg changes the amount of logging
that the Distributed SA generates as follows:
Dbg=1 or Dbg=2: Alerts and Critical Errors
Only errors that will cause the Distributed SA to terminate will be
reported.
Dbg=3: Errors
Errors will be reported, but nothing else. (Includes Dbg=1 and Dbg=2)
Dbg=4: Warnings
Errors and warnings will be reported. (Includes Dbg=3)
Dbg=5: Normal
Some normal events will be reported along with errors and warnings.
(Includes Dbg=4)
Dbg=6: Informational Messages
In addition to the normal logging, Distributed SA will report detailed
information about its status and operation. Generally, this will produce
too much information for normal use. (Includes Dbg=5)
Dbg=7: Debugging
This should only be turned on at the request of QLogic Support. This
will generate so much information that system operation will be
impacted. (Includes Dbg=6)
Other Settings
The remaining configuration settings for the Distributed SA are generally only
useful in special circumstances and are not needed in normal operation. The
sample qlogic_sa.conf configuration file contains a brief description of each.
