Error Messages

Error messages and other system messages are saved in the file /var/adm/messages.

The two firmware-based diagnostic tools, POST and OBDiag, provide error messages either locally on the system console or remotely on an RSC console. These error messages can help to further refine your problem diagnosis. The amount of error information displayed in diagnostic messages is determined by the value of the OpenBoot PROM variable diag-verbosity. See "OBDiag Configuration Variables" for additional details.
