Hello,
and thanks to Christopher Manly [cam2@cornell.edu] for his quick and reliable
answer! Here's his response:
===================/snip/=======================
These logs are primarily generated by GDS agents. Somewhere along the
line, Sun changed the default logging on the GDS from silent to very
verbose. As far as I can tell, these logs can only be read by a special
tool that Sun support only has access to. So I decided to squelch
them. The way to do that (aside from /dev/null'ing the logfiles) is to
set the Log_level extension property on GDS resources to 'NONE'.
Here's a script I wrote to do it across the cluster:
#!/bin/ksh
for group in `/usr/cluster/bin/scha_cluster_get -O ALL_RESOURCEGROUPS`
do
for resource in `/usr/cluster/bin/scha_resourcegroup_get -O
RESOURCE_LIST -G $group`
do
isgds=`/usr/cluster/bin/scha_resource_get -O TYPE -R
$resource | /bin/cut -d : -f 1`
if [ $isgds = 'SUNW.gds' ]
then
Loglevel_info=`/usr/cluster/bin/scha_resource_get -O EXTENSION -R
$resource -G $group Log_level`
loglevel=`echo $Loglevel_info | /bin/awk '{print
$2}'`
#echo $resource $loglevel
if [ $loglevel != 'NONE' ]
then
/usr/cluster/bin/scrgadm -c -j $resource
-x Log_level=NONE
echo "$resource Fixed"
fi
fi
done
done
If you don't want to do that, play with this cron job in root's cron to
adjust the rate of rollover:
20 4 * * 0 /usr/cluster/lib/sc/newcleventlog /var/cluster/logs/eventlog
