System Console Log

The UNIX system log displays messages passed from Backup. When Backup is installed, it adds lines to the configuration log file (syslog.conf) to tell the system log facility what types of notices to direct to which file or user. For example:

daemon.notice                   /dev/console
daemon.notice                   /nsr/logs/messages
daemon.notice                   operator
local0.notice                   /nsr/logs/summary
local0.alert                    root, operator
