Brocade ICX Switch: Increasing The Buffered Logging To 100 Instead Of The Default Of 50

Ever do a "show log" on an ICX switch and get no more than 50 lines?  You can increase that to 100 if you want to.  Or decrease it if you like.  Either way, here is how you go about it below.

Notice that the default is 50.
ICX6450-24P Switch#sh log
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
...
Dynamic Log Buffer (50 lines):
...

Now, lets increase the number.  I misstyped the high number on purpose, so we could see what the limit is:
ICX6450-24P Switch(config)#logg buff 1000
Error - Invalid input 1000. Valid range is between 1 and 100
ICX6450-24P Switch(config)#logg buff 100
Reload required.  Please write memory and then reload or power cycle.
ICX6450-24P Switch(config)#exit

After I rebooted the switch:
ICX6450-24P Switch>sh log
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
...
Dynamic Log Buffer (100 lines):
...
