Each log file (except the server log file) is limited to 5 MB. The server log file is limited to 10
MB. When a file reaches the maximum size, and there are less than 10 files for the server or 5
files for the client, a new file is created.
For web clients, log files (client.log.1 through client.log.5) are created in the
Install_Home\Server_Name directory.
For clients, log files (client.log.1 through client.log.5) are created in the User_Home directory.
For servers, log files (server.log.1 through server.log.10) are created in the
User_home\jboss\server\dcm\log directory.
Fabric tracking
When you discover a new fabric and initial discovery is complete, fabric tracking is automatically
enabled. Subsequently, if a switch or end-device is added to or removed from the fabric, a plus (+)
or minus (-) icon displays (see table below) next to the product icon. Connections are also tracked.
A new connection displays a solid gray line with a added icon and missing connections display a
yellow dashed line with a removed icon.
When you enable fabric tracking and a switch is missing from the fabric, a warning level call home
event (Switch Switch_WWN is missing from the fabric Fabric_Name) is generated in the Master Log
and a call home alert is sent to the corresponding call center for this event.
To avoid call home events for missing switches, create a call home event filter and clear the 'Switch
is missing from the Fabric' check box in the Available Call Home Event Types table. Once you create
the call home event filter, assign it to the appropriate call center. To create a call home event filter,
refer to “Defining an event filter” on page 119.
