configure log display

configure log display severity {only}

Description

Configures the real-time log-level message to display.

Syntax Description

severity Specifies a message severity. Severities include critical, error, warning, notice, info, debug-summary, debug-verbose, and debug-data.
only Specifies only log messages of the specified severity level.

Default

If not specified, messages of all severities are displayed on the console display.

Usage Guidelines

You must enable the log display before messages are displayed on the log display. Use the enable log display command to enable the log display. This allows you to configure the system to maintain a running real-time display of log messages on the console.

Severity filters the log to display messages with the selected severity or higher (more critical). Severities include critical, error, warning, info, notice, debug-summary, debug-verbose, and debug-data.

You can also control log data to different targets. The command equivalent to configure log display is the following:

configure log target console-display severity severity

To display the current configuration of the log display, use the following command:

show log configuration target console-display

In a stack, this command is applicable only to Master and Backup nodes and not applicable to the standby nodes.

Example

The following command configures the system log to maintain a running real-time display of log messages of critical severity or higher:

configure log display critical

The following command configures the system log to maintain a running real-time display of only log messages of critical severity:

configure log display critical only
