5.11.3 Modifying a File ID
Use the following CLI syntax to modify a file ID:
CLI Syntax: config>log
file-id log-file-id
description description-string
location [cflash-id]
rollover minutes [retention hours]
The following displays the current file ID configuration:
ALU-12>config>log# info
------------------------------------------
file-id 1
description "This is a log file."
location cf3:
rollover 600 retention 24
exit
----------------------------------------------
ALU-12>config>log#
The following displays an example of modifying file ID parameters:
Example: config# log
config>log# file-id 1
config>log>file-id# description "LocationTest."
config>log>file-id# location cf3:
config>log>file-id# rollover 2880 retention 500
config>log>file-id# exit
The following displays the file ID modifications:
ALU-12>config>log# info
----------------------------------------------
...
file-id 1
description "LocationTest."
location cf3:
rollover 2880 retention 500
exit
...
----------------------------------------------
Note: When the file-id location parameter is modified, log files are not written to the new
location until a rollover occurs or the log is manually cleared. A rollover can be forced by
using the clear>log command. Subsequent log entries are then written to the new location.
If a rollover does not occur or the log is not cleared, the old location remains in effect.
