Command History
Usage Guidelines We recommend that you keep OBFL enabled and do not clear the data stored in the flash memory.
To ensure that the time stamps in the OBFL data logs are accurate, manually set the system clock, or
configure it by using Network Time Protocol (NTP).
If you do not enter the message level level parameter, all the hardware-related messages generated by
the switch are stored in the flash memory.
The optional slot number is always 1. Entering the hw-module module [slot-number] logging onboard
[message level level] command has the same result as entering the hw-module module logging
onboard [message level level] command.
You can verify your settings by entering the show logging onboard privileged EXEC command.
Examples This example shows how to enable OBFL on a switch stack and to specify that all the hardware-related
messages are stored in the flash memory:
