• Reading the AIX error log with errpt and feeding it into syslog

  errpt is AIX's own hardware/software error log, started earlier in boot than syslog and populated by the kernel and error-aware daemons, not by application log lines. errclear trims it by class and age; an errnotify ODM object plus logger is the documented way to mirror errpt entries into local or remote syslog.
