Looking for a boot log??

Running Solaris 9 on SPARC
Looking for boot information?
Are the specifics of what may have failed during boot logged anywhere?? Results of the rcx.d scripts???
Thanks

Very true about dmesg. I was thinking only of the startup scripts even though the OP asked about "boot" information.
If the machine actually makes it to multiuser, then 'syslogd' will dump the dmesg buffer into /var/adm/messages, and that's a good place to look anyway.

Looking for multiple graph logging suggestions

I have a "host program" that is attached to a cRIO platform used for precision controlling of some heavy machinery. The current host is used to set parameters, but primarily to read values and display trends for the operators and maintenance personnel. I had previously been looking for a method to put a correct timestamp on my historical charts, which allow the user to scroll back if something odd occurs, but this has become more trouble than it is worth. One of my main difficulties in all of this is that I have 6 synchronized graphs that need the "roll back" ability, and putting a live timestamp on a chart you must be able to pause and rewind is unfathomably difficult with LabVIEW...
So, I have decided to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, so to speak. I needed to work out logging the graphed signals to file anyhow, so I decided I might as well just do this and externally reference the log files for the "rewind" functionality. My problem now is finding the best approach to log these 6 graphs of differing types... The first graph has 3 overlaid analog values, the second graph has 2 overlaid values, and the last 4 are each just a single individual (scaled) sensor reading. The graphs are updated every 100ms. Accurate timestamps (date and time) need to be attached to the data as well.
This logging is a new arena of LabVIEW for me, but I figured there has to be at least a few experienced users or developers out there who know all of the ins and outs. Any suggestions on the best way for me to log this data? Individual files for each chart, or is there a better method to combine the data to keep it cleaner (not multiple files to track)? Are there pitfalls I should be watching out for?

Take a look at tdms files. They are a binary format that is open (www.ni.com/white-paper/5696/en). You can define groups of channels and they can be logged at different rates. The LabVIEW API makes it relatively easy to retrieve a channel or group, although it may be more challenging to find a specific time if your files are large. Besides the examples included with LabVIEW, you can drill down into the TDMS File Viewer that's in the TDMS palette for another example. Also, there is a plug in for Excel that will allow it to import TDMS files (zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2944).

Mac Mini stuck looking for Windows Boot Disk! Please help

Hi all, I've been running Leopard on my Mac Mini off a FireWire hard drive enclosure. The 750gb hard drive in the enclosure is a drive I used to have in my old iMac.
When I had my iMac I'd installed Windows via Bootcamp. So when running, the Mac Mini would show a Windows partition on the Leopard desktop. Today I needed to do something in Windows. so I went to Sys Prefs > Startup Disk and chose to reboot into that Windows partition. BIG MISTAKE
Now whenever I turn the Mini on it looks for a Windows partition and tells me it can't find one. I've tried resetting the PMU, booting from Leopard DVD, holding Option, nothing works. The only thing that will work is if I put a Windows XP disk in and it will try and take me through the install process.
How on earth do I get my Mac back booting into Leopard!?

I can't believe it was just the new Apple thin Alu Keyboard causing it! Plugged in an old Apple USB one and I got the Option startup menu straight away, totally bizarre!

Looking for meaning of log entry in WLC 4402

This appears over and over again in my log buffer (which is set to trap warnings thru alerts):
*Jun 15 14:46:54.016: %APF-4-PROC_ACTION_FAILED: apf_wme_utils.c:3440 Could not process 802.11 Action. Received Action frame with invalid category field from mobile station. Mobile:1C:4B:D6:5B:19:18.
-Traceback: 1014152c 1062bcdc 10103ba0 10103dbc 104c47c0 10e4d7f4 1103f1ac
I'm just wondering if anybody knows what this means. I've looked on Cisco's website and found nothing useful. I did find one article that said the message meant:
"Could not process 802.11 Action."
Duh.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steven

Where to look for log files & crash reports to help debug lockups?

Where would I look for possible log files or crash information that may provide clues on what the problem is?
Three or four times in the past few days my system has became unresponsive requiring a power-cycle. The little prism-colored round-cursor appears. I can drag windows about with my BlueTooth mouse (but not the trackpad) and that's about. The Function keys are not responsive. Other times the UI may becomes totally unresponsive.
A couple of weeks ago I Carbon Copy cloned my hard drive to a new 500GB Hitachi 7200 RPM ( I have 200GB free space now ). Before upgrading, I do not recall having had this problem. It usually occurs when I am running a Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 VM under Parallels. Parallels may have nothing to do with it as that's what I do all day ( develop Linux software in a VM ).
I have a MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz, OS X 10.6.3.
Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions,
-Ed

This is a Mac OS X issue. I am not using Boot Camp or otherwise dual-booting. I am running Linux in a virtual machine under a Parallels Mac OS X host; in effect running Linux as an application under OS X.
Unfortunately I did not see any clues in either log file location. Thank you very much for explaining where to look. I ran Disk Utility and repaired a bunch of permissions. Perhaps I should have done this before and after making the Carbon Copy clone.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for the drivers that are needed once you install windows. I've got to dual boot due to school. But, I don't ever remember getting a CD or anything with my mac and was hopping I could download them and burn them to a DVD

No, you don't need to install a software update for Lion if you are now running Mountain Lion.

Looking for Function module through which I can get Logged comments

Hi,
I am new to CRM.
On an activity task we have 'Logged comments' section. I am looking for FM that I could use to import 'Logged comments' for an activity task.
I guess that I can use CRM_ORDER_READ. I was trying to find some documentation but did not find anything. I am not sure which object I should export.
Could anyone help me?
Many thanks,
Jan

If you are refering to text called logged comments then use function module READ_TEXT.
Regard.

Will CDC look for a missing archive log in an alternate log_archive_dest ?

Will CDC look for a missing archive log in an alternate log_archive_dest ?
If a log is deleted from the primary dest, will CDC look in all the altenate destinations before failing? Or is it unaware of the other destinations?

Looking for automated log watching program

I am looking for a log watching program similar to Logwatch on Linux which can then be automated, for my Xserves. Does anyone know of such a product?
Thanks,

Just pay attention that you should immediately upgrade Snort as the HenWen website says, "The bundled version of Snort will not run in Leopard due to a change in Leopard's iODBC library (and you shouldn't use it in Tiger, either, since it has a security hole)."

Looking for the Garbage Collection log files

Hello,
I am looking for the Garbage Collection log files which contain the GC events, like this:
[GC 2095K->1709K(2160K), 0.0017628 secs]
[Full GC 2161K->1018K(2276K), 0.0576353 secs]
The server's GC is already configured accordingly:
verbose:gc
I have examined the std_server<x>.out files at the work folder but can't see this info.
My question is: Where would I find these files on the server?

I can't find info in the format I know it not at dev_server* or std_server*.
in std_server I see xml file like this:
<gc type="scavenger" id="1" totalid="1" intervalms="0.000">
    <flipped objectcount="303111" bytes="24994248" />
    <tenured objectcount="0" bytes="0" />
    <refs_cleared soft="429" weak="4329" phantom="0" />

    </tenured>
    <time totalms="185.585" />
</gc>
I guess this is the info I need but it's not formatted in a way that your tool can read it and having a tool like this reading it is very helpful.
Any ideas?

HT201209 Looking for remaining balance when logged in to my iTunes account.

Looking for where to check remaining balance when logged in to my iTunes account.
On-line help does not specify.
Available account menus and screens do not have a visible: "balance remaining" field.
History should include notification such as "credits expired" and a dollar cost but none appears.
Sugggestion: since email is embeded with the iTunes account, a thrity day expiration notice email should be a simple and kind feature of the iTunes store.
