Hello, thanks for your answers. Original question is listed in the end of this message. Summarizing the answers, I would still say that there is not any identical equivalent for "errpt", but SunVTS package looks promising for the hardware verification part. More info from: http://www.sun.com/oem/products/vts "SunVTS, Sun Validation Test Suite, tests and validates Sun hardware by verifying the connectivity and functionality of hardware devices, controllers and peripherals. SunVTS is used by OPs, OEMs, SunService/Field, Design Engineering, SQA and end users to ensure a "clean bill of health" of the overall system under test and its underlying hardware. The tool is used for both Hardware validation and repair verfication." Other people suggested using syslog, dmesg, prtdiag, which were not exactly what I was looking for (I should have described errpt better). Someone suggested parsing the syslog output with software like Swatch or Logmonitor, which might come close to errpt functionality. These are 3rd party softwares, so I will look first into SunVTS. Thank you for all your answers: Mark Deiss Scott Howard K.K. Mookhey Doug Floer Joe Flatcher Bertrand Hutin Thorfinn Rasmussen My original question: ======== Hello, a client with aix background asked me if there exists an error reporting tool in Solaris with similar features as the system command 'errpt' in aix. I've found errpt very handy in the few aix systems I work on, since you can quickly see if you have hardware or software problem and in which part of the system the problem probably is. My quick answer was "not that I'm aware of, but let me check". So, am I just ignorant of some feature in Solaris or can anybody recommend some 3rd party tool with similar features? As usual, willing to summarize.
