Controller Log Files

• PCMM or AKD PDMM generated logs are stored in flash memory at /mount/flash/log.
• PCMM2G generated logs are stored in flash memory at /home/kas/kas/log.

Files are stored in a rotating pool consisting of a maximum of 10 files.

• The files have a maximum size of 200kb each.
• The most amount of space the log files will consume is 2MB.
• When a files is created after the tenth file, the earliest file is deleted to make room for the new file.

The controller-generated log levels can be controlled from the KAS-IDE and Web server.

KAS-IDE-generated log levels can be filtered in the configuration window in the Logs and Information tab.

Log File Naming Convention

Logs have this naming convention: pdmm_log_n.

Where:

• n is a value ranging from 0000000000 to 4294967295.
• This is the maximum value a 32-bit location can store.

Example

• When the files are first created they are named:
  • pdmm_log_0000000000
  • pdmm_log_0000000001
  • pdmm_log_0000000002, etc.
• The file that is created after pdmm_log_4294967295 is pdmm_log_0000000000.
  • The naming is reset and continues.

Error and Alarm History File (PCMM2G only)

The PCMM2G stores a file named error_alarm_history.log at /home/kas/kas/log.

This file stores a history of Controller Error and Alarm Descriptions that have occurred on the controller.
