Checking the log file

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 LPAR mode z/VM guest

Warnings and messages are written to the log file of either the master agent or the OSA-Express subagent. It is good practice to check these files at regular intervals.

Example

This example assumes that the default subagent log file is used. The lines in the log file show the messages after a successful OSA-Express subagent initialization.

# cat /var/log/osasnmpd.log
