Here's one of the messages for reference:

Jul 2 10:27:16 appserver EventProvider[27653]: SYNTAX_ERROR: filesystem./test/appsrvr.usedspace = 0, 95.00, 98.00, 2

So, on the host "appserver" some process that goes by name "EventProvider" and has process id 27653 created the error message that is the rest of the line.

That does not look at all like a file system error message.

I won't try to guess what software this EventProvider might be, but "SYNTAX ERROR" means usually that the software does not understand something. Usually it is accompanied with something that describes where the error is. The message probably means that the text "filesystem./test/appsrvr.usedspace = 0, 95.00, 98.00, 2" is not correct.

I'm guessing that someone made a few mistakes when configuring some sort of a disk space monitoring software.

I suspect it could be something to do with a WBEM based application, such as HP SIM; do you have that installed?
