Solaris 10 Not Logging Anything
Hello,
It would appear that my server is no longer logging anything. Last time anything was written to /var/adm/messages and /var/log/syslog was Aug 26 2010. I was told there was a storm and the power went out or something around that time, but there were never any problems. I've tried restarting syslogd and it still won't log anything, and my /etc/syslog.conf file is identical to another server I have that is properly logging.
I'd really appreciate some help with this. Thanks guys

NAME
ha_logd - Logging Daemon for High-Availability Linux
SYNOPSIS
ha_logd [-s] [-k] [-d] [-h] [-c file]
DESCRIPTION
ha_logd is a logging daemon for Linux-HA. It receives messages from a local domain socket /var/lib/heartbeat/log_daemon, and writes them to
appropriate files and syslog if enabled. The reason for utilizing this logging daemon is that occasionally Heartbeat suffers from disk I/O
delays. By sending log messages to a logging daemon, heartbeat can avoid such I/O delays.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-s
Show ha_logd status (either running or stopped)
-k
Stop (kill) the daemon
-d
Daemonize (without this option, ha_logd will run in the foreground)
-h
Show a brief usage message
-c file
Configuration file. You may configure a regular log file, debug log file, log facility, and entity. For details, see the example
ha_logd.cf file found in the documentation.
FILES
o /var/run/ha_logd.pid - PID file
o ha_logd.cf - example configuration file
