Saving Log Files
Log files can be saved to a file in a local or remote location specified by a URL. Use the following Exec mode
command to save log files:
save logs { url } [ active ] ] [ inactive ] [ callid call_id ] [event-verbosity evt_verboseness ] [ facility
facility ] [level severity_level ] [ pdu-data pdu_format ] [ pdu-verbosity pdu_verboseness ] [ since
from_date_time [ until to_date_time ] ] [ | { grep grep_options | more } ]
For detailed information on the save logs command, see the Exec Mode Commands chapter in the Command
Line Interface Reference.
Event ID Overview
The use of event IDs depends on the platform type and the licenses running on the platform.Important
Identification numbers (IDs) are used to reference events as they occur when logging is enabled on the system.
As described previously, logs are collected on a per facility basis. Each facility possesses its own range of
event IDs as indicated in the following table.
