How are console log messages recorded by AIX?

Aalog

Bsyslog

Crsyslog

Derrdemon

Show Suggested 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.

syslog, duh. Although, now that I think about it, maybe AIX has some special snowflake logging system. Hmm, gotta think this through.

Hah, errdemon? What is this, the Stone Age? Gotta be syslog, unless AIX has some weird custom logging system. Either way, the other options are just silly.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe we should consider rsyslog as well.

Ooh, this one's tricky. I was leaning towards rsyslog, but now I'm doubting myself. Console logs are important, gotta get this right!
