Hi Team,
Has anybody used the below set of commands in Cluster shell as per kb: https://kb.netapp.com/Advice_and_Troubleshooting/Data_Storage_Software/ONTAP_OS/How_to_efficiently_search_the_event_log_in_clustered_Data_ONTAP ?
Events since a specific timecm6080-rtp2::> event log show -time >=5/2/2014 08:00:00 Events in a specific time range:cm6080-rtp2::> event log show -time "05/02/2014 08:00:00".."05/02/2014 09:00:00"

hi @not_a_Lone_wolf
ONTAP will not keep an infinite amount of system logs; since there is a size limit to it, a system which is logging a lot of events will be able to show a shorter time frame of them.For now, if you need to access logs of a specific day, you can check Autosupports in Active IQ; for future use you might want to look at a remote syslog server to forward ONTAP events to.
