I have a binary.errlog in /var/adm. What does this represent and what is dumped in error to this log?

Please advise?

Thanks,

Chris

The binary errlog files are Compaq's method of recording hardware related errors (and limited panic information). You can use dia, uerf, or ca to review the logs depending on the release that you are running.

# uerf -R |more

This will give you a readable version of that Binary Error log file.
