How are console log messages recorded by AIX?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

AIX provides the syslog service to record console log messages. The syslog service is used to control the logging of system messages and can be used to record and store the log messages in different formats. The syslog service is enabled through the use of the alog and errdemon commands. The alog command is used to view the log messages that are stored in the /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log file, while the errdemon command is used to control the logging of system messages.

I guess we have different views. I'm between alog and errdemon.

SYSLOG is more for UNIX, right? AIX is a bit different. I’m inclined towards alog.

B) syslog seems possible. Doesn't syslog standardize log messages?

No, I believe it's D) errdemon. It handles error logging, right?
