rasconf



PURPOSE

Defines the reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) configuration
file.

DESCRIPTION

The rasconf file defines attributes of the reliability, availability, and
serviceability (RAS) system.  Initially, RAS logging is inactive and must be
activated before any RAS data can be collected.

This attribute file consists of stanzas that govern the actions of daemons
associated with individual RAS devices.  Each stanza name is the name of the
associated RAS device.

The following attributes are valid:

file = file    Specifies the file into which the daemon will write the RAS
               information.

size = blocks  Specifies the maximum size, in 1024-byte blocks, to which the
               daemon will allow the file to grow.

EXAMPLE

A typical rasconf file can contain the following:

     /dev/klog:
       file = /usr/adm/messages
       size = 100

     /dev/error:
       file = /usr/adm/ras/errfile
       size = 50

     /dev/trace:
       file = /usr/adm/ras/trcfile
       size = 80
       buffer = 6

FILE

/etc/rasconf
