Hi All

How can I extend my logs? What I mean by that make them go longer. Curently I dont have a syslog server in place.. im planing on putting that in later on, how can I get the logs to display more logs???

Thanks
 
Make your logging buffer larger . The default is like 4096 which is way too small for most people . Just making it like 100K will make it a lot larger . When you adjust it you will lose anything thats in their .

logging buffered 100000 informational

 
One other thing you can do is raise the log severity level to start logging at, so the less-important warnings or informational messages don't hog the log. You can change from that above example to "warning" or "critical", for example, instead of "informational" to ignore less important logs. The log severity is a 3-bit value, or 0-7.
