%SYSLOG-6-SYSTEM_MSG : Logfile wrapped-around after exceeding max-size

Hi, 

Observing these logs 

%SYSLOG-6-SYSTEM_MSG : Logfile wrapped-around after exceeding max-size   on the nexus device 

Can anyone advise what are the reasons for this appearance . I believe this may be the designed behavior but just trying to search for more information or doc for this.

Hello,

 

as far as I recall, this has something to do with the log file size. The command:

 

show logging info

 

shows you what is currently configured. You can change the logging file size per severity level with the command:

 

NX(config)# logging logfile logfile-name severity-level [ size bytes ]

 

Have a look at the document linked below for reference:
