Description This article describes what happens when ComLog files reach max file size.
Scope FortiGate.
Solution

ComLog is a feature on certain FortiGate hardware modules that can record console output. Once it is enabled, it can record console output logs up to 4MB filesize.

To enable/disable the feature:

 

diag debug comlog enable/disable

 

To check the status:

 

diag debug comlog info

 

To show the entries:

 

diag debug comlog read
