Editing Syslog messaging configuration
You can use the Configure Syslog dialog box to edit an existing messaging configuration and specify how system messages are logged. By default, all system messages (except those with debug-level severity) are sent to the console and logged in the /etc/messages file.
About this task 
The /etc/syslog.conf configuration file on the root volume of the storage system determines how system messages are logged.
Steps 
1.
From the Home tab, double-click the appropriate storage system.
2.
In the navigation pane, click Diagnostics > Logs > Syslog.
3.
Click Edit.
4.
Click Basic and select the severity of system messages and specify where the messages are sent.
5.
Click Advanced to directly modify the contents of the /etc/syslog.conf file.
Note: If you click the Basic button after making changes to your messaging configuration, the contents of the advanced section are erased and replaced with the basic configuration.
6.
Click OK.
