Powerfail message on Console

On a K460 running 11.00 How do I turn off a powerfail message on the console? There was a powerfail test and now I can't figure out how to turn off the broadcast message. Everything is OK with the system.

Thanks.

Try a hard reset on the console: Ctrl+Shift+Reset.

If it fails try turning on the terminal while pressing D.

I'm not sure if a K460 has a GSP. If so, clear the message in there.

No GSP per say on a K

You message is probably coming out of syslog and the /etc/syslog.conf will look something like this

# See syslogd(1M) for information about the format of this file.
#
mail.debug /var/adm/syslog/mail.log
*.info;mail.none /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
*.alert /dev/console
*.alert root
*.emerg *

Thus *.alerts go to console, you could redirect them to syslog.log as well.
