Debugging processes
Like all operating systems, both the firewall and Panorama systems have several processes that perform specific tasks. Each of these processes has a log file and a configurable logging level, also called a debug level. By default, most processes have a lowered debug level, so only the most important log entries are written to the log file, which conserves space and is better for retention. Debug levels can be increased, but this could lead to shorter retention and, in some cases, an increase in resource use.
You can verify the current debug level of each process by issuing the following command:
reaper@pa-440> debug <process name> show
For example:
reaper@PA-440> debug device-server show
debug level: info
Features:
config : basic
You can change the debug level by issuing the following command:
reaper@pa-440> debug <process name> on <debug level>
For example:
reaper@PA-440> debug device-server...
