NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     amsyslog -	parse system log files and print critical messages

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     /usr/etc/amsyslog [ -p prioritylevel ] [ -S syslogfile ]
	  [ -O oldsyslogfile ] [ -d ]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     amsyslog parses system log	files and prints messages of a specified (or
     higher) priority.	The default system log files are /var/adm/SYSLOG and
     /var/adm/oSYSLOG.	The default priority level is 4	(warning, error	and
     critical messages).  Repeated messages in any order are recorded once, at
     the point of first	occurrence, with the repetition	count and the last
     time stamp	shown at the end of the	message, delimited by "<" and ">".
     This includes interspersed	multiple sequences of repeated messages.

     The options are:

     -p	prioritylevel
	  Specify priority level (0-6)

     -S	syslogfile
	  Specify system syslog	file.

     -O	oldsyslogfile
	  Specify rotated old system syslog file.

     -d	  Print	duplicated messages as they appear in syslog files.

     amsyslog ignores messages before the last reboot.	It is called to
     include system log	information in any availmon(5) diagnosis report	for a
     system crash.
