Somehow my m-series hang and need to reboot. JTAC suspected that this is due to harddisk busy, since there were so many log that write-erase to the harddisk and suggested to reduce that process. Does anyone has information what is the best practice on how to manage syslog severity on the Juniper router? Which log should be send to syslog server and should be save also in the router itself. The goal is how to make the router healhty by reduce log of changing any information on the router from harddisk on the routing-engine perspective. But in the other hand we need the log information for the NMS. ------------------------------------------------- I send everything to a *nix sysog server that I can (levels 0 - 7 are the range) w/o taxing the CPU too much and keep as little as possible on the router. That way I have everything I can to grep through when trouble occurs. Be sure to use the syslog.conf (logadm.conf in Solaris) to cut, zip and archive the logs daily, so there's not too much to grep through. Also, use "facility localN", where N is 0 - 7, to send the syslog entries to a particular directory, rather than /var/log/messages. Here's how I do it in Solaris: /var/log/router.log -C 100 -c -p 1d -t /var/log/old-router-logs/router.log.%m-%d-%Y -z 1 /var/log/router.log scott --------------------------------- _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
