ASET generates an execution log whether it runs interactively or in the background. By default, ASET generates the log file on standard output. The execution log confirms that ASET ran at the designated time, and also contains any execution error messages. The aset -n command directs the log to be delivered by electronic mail to a designated user. For a complete list of ASET options, refer to aset(1M).
ASET running at security level low Machine=example; Current time = 0325_08:00 aset: Using /usr/aset as working directory Executing task list... firewall env sysconfig usrgrp tune cklist eeprom All tasks executed. Some background tasks may still be running. Run /usr/aset/util/taskstat to check their status: $/usr/aset/util/taskstat aset_dir Where aset_dir is ASET's operating directory, currently=/usr/aset When the tasks complete, the reports can be found in: /usr/aset/reports/latest/*.rpt You can view them by: more /usr/aset/reports/latest/*.rpt |
The log first shows the system and time that ASET was run. Then it lists each task as it is started.
ASET invokes a background process for each of these tasks, which are described in "ASET Tasks". The task is listed in the execution log when it starts; this does not indicate that it has been completed. To check the status of the background tasks, use the taskstat utility.
