View event records

View a detailed log of system events. Each event is a record in the log and each record is identified by an ID. You can display 100 event records at a time and filter on a range of times when the events were logged and the event severity.

NOTE:The show action command explains how to change the output format.

Format

/event/log show [-messageID <value>] [-fromTime <value>] [-toTime <value>] [-limit <value>] [-severity {critical | error | warning | notice | info}]

Action qualifiers

Qualifier	Description
-messageID	Type the message identifier of the log record.
-fromTime	Type the beginning of the time interval for which to display event records. The format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. NOTE:If you omit this qualifier, the list of logs that appears will begin with the first log.
-toTime	Type the end of the time interval for which to display event records. The format is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. NOTE:If you omit this qualifier, the value is the current system time.
-limit	Type the maximum number of records to display. The value cannot exceed the default number 100.
-severity	Type the minimum severity level of the events to display. For example, if you type critical, records for the alert and emergency severities will also appear.
