errstop

PURPOSE

     Terminates the error-logging daemon.

SYNOPSIS
     errstop [ kernel ]

DESCRIPTION

     The  errstop   command  stops  the   error-logging  demon
     errdemon by running the ps command to determine the demon
     process  ID  and then  sending  it  a Software  Terminate
     signal  (see  the signal  system  call  in AIX  Operating
     System  Technical  Reference).   If you  do  not  specify
     kernel-image, errstop uses /unix.   Only a user operating
     with superuser authority can run errstop.

FILES

     /unix    System kernel image.
