How do I view Sun Management Center log files using Sun Management Center?
Log files for all components running on a particular host are located in /var/opt/SUNWsymon/log. The log files are circular, and normally they must be viewed using special utilities. One option is to use the PrimeAlert FileBrowser module to display these log files from within the Sun Management Center console. This module also supports viewing of non-circular logfiles, and allows filtering and pattern matching to highlight conditions of interest. Sun Management Center log files may also be viewed using the ‘ccat’ and ‘ctail’ utilities that are included in the distribution package. ‘ccat’ will display the entire file, while ‘ctail’ will display the most recent additions to the file (similar to the UNIX ‘tail’ command).
