log-level

The log-level command sets the system wide log-level or the log-level for a specific task or process. In addition, you can set the log type for a specific log level on a per-task basis.

Syntax

log-level <task-name | all> <log-level>

Arguments

<task-name>: Enter the name of the specific task for which you want to set. Use 'all' to set the log level for all tasks.

<log-level> Select the log level either by name or by number:

• emergency (1)
• critical (2)
• major (3)
• minor (4)
• warning (5)
• notice (6)
• info (7)
• trace (8)
• debug (9)
• detail (10)

You cannot set the following tasks with the log-level command:

• authqueue
• fragHandler
• heap
• healthCheckd
• SSHD
• tLFMiBd

To set the log level for the preceding tasks, you must go to system-config and use system-log-level and process-log-level attributes.

By default the syslogd task log level is emergency; other settings cause high CPU usage. The log level resets to emergency whenever the configuration is saved and activated, and syslogd is not affected by the log-level all commands.

Note:

The log setting changes made by the log-level command do not persist after a reboot. Upon reboot, you must change the log settings in the system configuration for them to persist. When entering multiple log types in the log-type-list argument, use a space for separation.
