Hey,

You can develop a small script and schedule it under cron for removing the errlogs which are too older.
You can use

Code:

Quote:

errclear

# To delete all entries in the error log classified as software errors, enter:
errclear -d S 0

# To clear all entries from the alternate error-log file /var/adm/ras/errlog.alternate, enter:

errclear -i /var/adm/ras/errlog.alternate 0

# To clear all hardware entries from the alternate error-log file /var/adm/ras/errlog.alternate, enter:

errclear -i /var/adm/ras/errlog.alternate -d H 0

Or run a simple script for .trc using rm and schedule it under cron if needed.
