After an initial OS (Solaris 10 10/08) jumpstart to a sever, several fmd errors were reported and noticed that / is 100% used. I then noticed that /var/fm/fmd contains a lot of core.fmd.* files which fill the disk, so I deleted them manually. Disk usage dropped to about %20. After sometime another error was reported by fmd and disk usage jumped to %44, so I fixed it by fmadm repair. However, /var/fm/fmd is still full of core.fmd.* files (about 300 files, 18M each).
But the primary concern is why the Fault Management system is making so many log files, perhaps there is a fault, that needs fixing? Perhaps taking a look at the syslog might enlighten you as what the root cause is?
I have seen the article by Scott, but it does not mention how to deal with core.fmd.* files; it only discusses errlog and fltlog. Manual page for fmd does not provide any detail and did not see indication in syslog
I have been searching and reading about syslog. I would like to know how to Transfer the logs being thrown into /var/log/messages into another file example /var/log/volumelog.

There's something strange with fmd in update 6. On four identical machines (Netra T2000) all installed thru jumpstart (same configuration, same packages, same patches, same firmware) fmd randomly refuses to start after reboot.
