I used this:

# lctl get_param printk

lnet.printk=warning error emerg console

# lctl set_param printk=+neterror

(debug)

# lctl set_param printk=-neterror


Take a look at  "Diagnostic and Debugging Tools" chapter at lustre manual.

# lctl debug_list subs
Subsystems: all_subs, undefined, mdc, mds, osc, ost, class, log, llite, rpc, mgmt, lnet, lnd, pinger, filter, echo, ldlm, lov, lquota, osd, lfsck, lmv, sec, gss, mgc, mgs, fid, fld

# lctl debug_list types
Types: all_types, trace, inode, super, ext2, malloc, cache, info, ioctl, neterror, net, warning, buffs, other, dentry, nettrace, page, dlmtrace, error, emerg, ha, rpctrace, vfstrace, reada, mmap, config, console, quota, sec, lfsck, hsm

You may take a look at neterror, net.

The list of parameters (it is long, running on oss):
# lctl list_param -R | less
# lctl list_param -R | wc -l
error: list_param: /proc/fs/lustre/llite/*: Found no match
error: list_param: /proc/fs/lustre/qmt/*: Found no match
