3Com 5500-SI - Configuration Examples of Sending Log to Control Terminal

488 CHAPTER 22: FILE SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
c After the establishment of information (log file) and the revision of
/etc/syslog.conf, you should view the number of syslogd (system daemon)
through the following command, kill syslogd daemon and reuse -r option the start
syslogd in daemon.
# ps -ae | grep syslogd
147
# kill -9 147
# syslogd -r &
For Linux loghost, you must ensure that syslogd daemon is started by -r option.
After the above operation, the Switch system can record information in related log
files.
To configure facility, severity, filter and the file syslog.conf synthetically, you can get
classification in great detail and filter the information.
