re : online diagnostic and purging log files

[Vincent_5]

Hi Guys,
Can I check if anyone of you have done a online diagnostic check on a rp server before and in exercise the hardware to check health status. Can I have the steps to how to perform the health check and roughly how much time is needed for the check. Also, can anyone advice how can I purge the log files from the server.

Hi,

For checking the health, you can watch the /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log and /var/adm/syslog.log other than that, ask HP CE for PM.

For purging the log, you can go to SAM -> Routine Tasks -> System Log Files -> choose the log files -> Action -> Trim -> recommended or trim to zero

Regards,
Sandy
