Knowledge Article: ID B0000006B: Event log full

Description

The advanced management module event log is full. New entries in the event log will overwrite the oldest entries.

Causes

The management module event log stores all log entries in the log until it is full. Reaching event log capacity generates an event.

Implications

New entries in the event log overwrite the oldest entries. To preserve all entries, address this alert at the earliest opportunity.

Resolutions

If you do not wish to continue monitoring events (receive log full and log 75% full messages) in the event log, you can choose to turn off the event monitoring from the advanced management module Web interface. Otherwise, perform these steps:

  1. Inspect the event log and make sure that a syslog collector is enabled to save the log data.
  2. Delete the event log messages.

For information about event monitoring and enabling a syslog collector, refer to the Advanced Management Module User"s Guide or the Advanced Management Module Command-Line Interface Reference Guide. These documents are available on the Web.
