FLASH Log Configuration
The persistent log is a log that is stored in persistent storage, which means that the log messages
are retained across a switch reboot.
The first log type is the system startup log. The system startup log stores the first N messages
received after system reboot. This log always has the log full operation attribute set to stop on
full and can store up to 32 messages.
The second log type is the system operation log. The system operation log stores the last N
messages received during system operation. This log always has the log full operation attribute
set to overwrite. This log can store up to 1000 messages.
Either the system startup log or the system operation log stores a message received by the log
subsystem that meets the storage criteria, but not both. In other words, on system startup, if the
startup log is configured, it stores messages up to its limit. The operation log, if configured, then
begins to store the messages.
Use the FLASH Log Configuration page to enable or disable persistent logging and to set the
severity filter.
To access the FLASH Log Configuration page:
1. Click the Monitoring > Logs tab, and then click the FLASH Log link.
