Failover History

HI,

 

How to find the failover history in F5 ? I see my F5 have failed over recently but i am not able to see anything in my var/log.

 

Any exact word that i need to look for ? Please advise.

 

Thanks, Peru

    Look at /var/log/ltm or one of the ltm.x.gz files depending on when the failover happened. You should be able to see logs for the past 7 days.
