About this task
Use the following steps to complete the system maintenance procedure:
Procedure
-
Issue the finderr command to analyze the error log for the highest severity
of unfixed errors. This command scans the error log for any unfixed errors. Given a priority order
that is defined within the code, the highest priority of unfixed errors is returned.
-
Issue the dumperrlog command to dump the contents of the error
log to a text file.
- Locate and fix the error.
-
Issue the clearerrlog command to clear all entries from the error log,
including status events and any unfixed errors. Only issue this command when you rebuild the
system or you fix a major problem that caused many entries in the error log that you do not
want to fix individually.
Note: Clearing the error log does not fix the errors.
-
Issue the cherrstate command to toggle the state of an error
between unfixed and fixed.
