errpt(1M) errpt(1M)
NAME
errpt - process a report of logged errors
SYNOPSIS
errpt [-a] [-d devlist] [-e date] [-f] [-p n] [-s date]
[files]
DESCRIPTION
errpt processes data collected by the error logging
mechanism (errdemon(1M)) and generates a report of that
data. The default report summarizes all errors posted in
the named files. The options described below apply to all
files. If you don't specify a file, errpt attempts to use
/usr/adm/errfile.
A summary report lists: the options that may limit its
completeness, the time stamped on the earliest and latest
errors, and the total number of errors of one or more types.
Each device summary contains: the total number of
unrecovered errors, recovered errors, errors which couldn't
be logged, I/O operations on the device, and miscellaneous
activities on the device. It also includes as read errors
the number of times that errpt has difficulty reading input
data.
In addition to specific error information, any detailed
report contains all instances of the error logging process
being started and stopped, any time changes (via date(1))
that took place during the interval being processed, and an
appended summary of each error type included.
A report may be limited to certain records in the following
ways:
-a a detailed report including all error types.
-d devlist a detailed report limited to data about the
devices in devlist. devlist can be in one
of two forms: a list of device identifiers
separated by a comma, or a list of device
identifiers enclosed in double quotes and
separated by a comma or spaces. errpt is
familiar with the common form of identifiers
(see Section 7 of this volume). The devices
for which errors are logged are system
dependent. Additional identifiers are int
and mem which include detailed reports of
stray-interrupt and memory-parity type
errors, respectively.
-e date ignore all records posted later than date,
where date has the form mmddhhmmyy.

-f a detailed report reporting only unrecovered
block device errors.
-p n limit the detailed report to n pages.
-s date ignore all records posted earlier than date,
where date has the form mmddhhmmyy.
When illegal options are specified, errpt ignores them and
generates default ouput.
