Instead of manually typing "errpt" at the command line to check the error reports on an AIX machine. IS there a simple way to automate this so that the machine alerts me when a new entry is written to it?
bjverzel in this forum sent me a script that runs every five minutes (or at whatever interval you want) to see if an error has been logged. I've got it set to start when my system boots.
What it does is count the number of errors from the last time it ran and if there is a difference in the number, it sends an email to whomever you want.
I'll try to get it into an FAQ here in the next few days.
