Errors

ldmad uses syslog(3C) to report status and error messages. Error messages are logged with the LOG_ERR and LOG_NOTICE priorities. Informational messages are logged with the LOG_INFO priority. The default entries in the /etc/syslog.conf file specify that all ldmad error messages are written to the /var/adm/messages log.

Notes

The ldmad service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

svc:/ldoms/agents:default

Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart can be performed using svcadm(1M). The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
