Synopsis portlogclear
Description Use this command to clear the port log. You might want to clear the port log before triggering an
activity so that the log displays only the log events related to that activity.
If the port log is disabled, portLogClear enables it. The port log is disabled automatically when
certain errors occur to allow the collection of all the information needed to understand the cause of
the error. When the port log is disabled, the events already present in the log are preserved, but
new events are not collected.
The following errors disable the port log:
FCPH, EXCHBAD
FCPH, EXCHFREE
NBFSM, DUPEPORTSCN
UCAST, RELICPDB
Refer to the Fabric OS Message Reference for more information on these errors.
Note The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place.Refer
