NAME

strclean − Cleans up STREAMS error log files

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/strclean [-d logdir] [-a age]

PARAMETERS

-d logdirSpecifies a directory, other than /var/adm/streams, for the location of the STREAMS error log files that must be removed. 

-a ageSpecifies the age, in days, after which STREAMS error log files may be removed.  The default is 3 days.  The value of age must be a positive integer. 

DESCRIPTION

Typically, the strclean command removes STREAMS error log files from /var/adm/streams, the default directory. The strclean command searches for the files called error.∗ that have not been modified for three days. 

The log files are created by the strlog interface.  Use the -a age parameter to change the default number of days after which error log files should be removed.  If messages are stored in a directory other than the default, specify the -d logdir parameter to remove these log files. 

Like many administrative commands, strclean can be run by the cron daemon on a periodic basis. 

EXAMPLES

To remove error log files that are 1 day old from a directory called /usr/error, enter:

# strclean -d /usr/error/streams -a 1

FILES

/var/adm/error.mm-dd
One or more error log files on which strclean operates.  The mm.dd in the filename indicates the month and day of the messages contained in the file.
