Where we can get the logs for a command execution successfully?
Hi,

How to get the logs for successfully executing of a solaris command?
Where the logs will be stored?
How to know that the commands is executed successfully or not?

Thanks,
Susi.

if you want to know the message from system or service, look the /var/adm or /var/log directorys for more information,.

but "commands is executed successfully or not?" ,you can check the exit status, if you use bash shell, you can type: echo $? if the result is 0 meaning successful, else will be had a problem.

logs for command.
Hi,

Thanks for your valuable information.
I want to know that whether the command execution is stored in any log files?
If we are working in any command, whether all events will be stored in any of the log files?

any ideas?

Thanks and Regards,
susi
