Hi guys, i wanted to know is there any other cluster log file rather than the
/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log or the
/etc/cmcluster/pkgdir/pkg.cntl.log

Anyother place i can check logs from...
Thanks

Hi Khilari

syslog.log file and package.cntl.log file are enough for most of the cases.

Sometimes you need to check event.log for diagnostic related issues.

There are also additinal files like:
/var/adm/cmcluster/frdump.cmcld.X
where X is number.
You can view it with:
/usr/contrib/bin/cmfmtfr frdump.cmcld.X

Another option is to increase SG logging and set logs to a different file.

There is really no way to answer your question other than "it depends". You have heard of all the standard log file locations but the package control script or the actual package itself could write files all over the place and could even be logging on another server via syslogd or emitting SNMP traps.
