Hi,

Its for logging of system messages and errors from the streams subsystem. To run a check on streams which will create a logfile in the directory run:

# strvf -v

Please see the Streams reference manual for more information.

Thanks !!

Do a "man -k STREAMS"
(uppercase) and you will find many manuals and explanations.
