Netra T2000 /var/adm/messages problem

Hi,
I have a netra t2000 running solaris 10. It is fully patched with the latest patch cluster and also patch 118833-36 and 126897-02. The SC sys_event level is set to 3.
I am running a test to show hardware log status, e.g simulating a power supply failure.Hence I unplug one of te power cords to the server. The SC shows that one PS is offline which is ok. However , nothing is shown under /var/adm/messages.
I have restarted the picl daemon, and also rechecked etc/syslog.conf, all are OK

Anyone who has experienced this before or with any ideas.Please Assist ASAP.

On my V445, I noticed that the messages captures when I pull out the power cord, but when I plug it back, it does not detect. However, the prtdiag updates correctly.. SUN systems...arghgh Smilie

/var/adm/messages vs /var/log/messages

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. Is there any other log file that contains the messages or is it just that Linux doesn't log great many things? (2 Replies)
