 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      diaglogd -  Support Tools Manager logging daemon


 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      /usr/sbin/stm/uut/bin/sys/diaglogd

 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      The Support Tools Manager (STM) uses a logging daemon ( diaglogd ) to
      read diagnostic events from the kernel via diag2 (diagnostic pseudo
      driver) and logs them in the system log files.

      diaglogd is launched automatically at boot by the STM daemon diagmond.
      The STM User Interface, xstm , mstm , or cstm , Daemon commands can
      also be used to launch the daemon as well as shut it down and view the
      daemon's activity log.

      The log files created by diaglogd can be viewed using the STM utility
      logtool.


 WARNINGS    [Toc]    [Back]
      The following message will appear on the system console when the
      diagnostic logging facility determines that the I/O subsystem has
      started logging excessive I/O errors.  This message will appear only
      once and I/O errors will be lost until the diagnostic subsystem can
      recover from this condition.

       DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM WARNING:
         The diagnostic logging facility has started receiving excessive
         errors from the I/O subsystem.  I/O error entries will be lost
         until the cause of the excessive I/O logging is corrected.
         If the diaglogd daemon is not active, use the Daemon Startup
         command in stm to start it. If the diaglogd daemon is active, use
         the logtool utility in stm to determine which I/O subsystem is
         logging excessive errors.

      The following message will appear on the system console when the cause
      of the excessive I/O error logging is corrected.  The total number of
      I/O errors that were dropped will be placed in "XX".

       DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM WARNING:
         The diagnostic logging facility is no longer receiving excessive
         errors from the I/O subsystem.  XX I/O error entries were lost.
