bnLogMsgBufferMaxSize

Module: BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB

OID (symbolic): BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferMaxSize

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.2

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object determines the overall size of the log message buffer facilities. Changing the value of this object causes all messages currently being stored in the buffer to be lost. Note that attempts to set this object to a larger value (e.g., msgBufferSizeSmall(50) to msgBufferSizeLarge(200)) may be rejected due to current resource utiliztion within the running system.

Note that this object only applies to the buffering capabilities that are volatile. Messages that are classified as volatile are lost upon system reinitialization. This object has no affect on non-volatile message logging capacity.

What is bnLogMsgBufferMaxSize?

Controls the maximum number of log messages the buffer facility can hold; changing this value clears all currently stored messages. Setting a larger value may fail if insufficient system resources are available.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.2
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferMaxSize

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.2.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BN-LOG-MESSAGE-MIB::bnLogMsgBufferMaxSize.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.45.1.6.16.1.1.2.1 i <value>
