The /var/adm/messages in Solaris seem to log more system messages/errors compared to /var/log/messages in Linux.
I checked the log level in Linux and they seem OK.

ds.log - Availability Suite data services log file
DESCRIPTION
The /var/adm/ds.log file contains the Availability Suite data services command log. The administration commands log activities to the file
in the format:
date time product: message
Note that when the size of the log file exceeds 10 Mbytes, ds.log is renamed /var/adm/ds.log.bak and a new /var/adm/ds.log file is cre-
ated.
The ds.log fields are:
date
The date format is mmm nn, where mmm is the local three-character abbreviation for the month and nn is the day of the month on which
the event occurred.
time
The time of the event, in hh:mm:ss format.
product
A product code that identifies which component of the data services produced the event. The code is separated from the message that
follows by a colon (:) and a space.
message
A message that can extend over more than one line describing the event that occurred. The second or following lines are not pre-
fixed by the date, time, and product code strings.
EXAMPLES
The example below shows sample ds.log file content:
Jan 25 05:26:17 ii: iiboot suspend cluster tag <none>
Jan 25 05:32:02 ii: iiboot resume cluster tag <none>
