How to stop uptime in /var/adm/messages ?

Dear all,

Uptime and /var/adm/messages shows same day count.

Is it normal routine or something bad?

If it is normal then how to stop this message from /var/adm/message ?

I havent seen this behaviour before. Its not normal solaris behaviour.Perhaps you have a cronjob which does this.

I have just installed a new E2900 and have the same results. Message shows up every 4 hours. I killed the cron daemon but the messages keep coming. Any ideas?

Weird, must be something specific to the enterprise grade servers. Related to hardware domains or something.

I suspect its coming out of the hardware ALOM or whatever the equivalent is on the Exxxx machines.

I can't help you, I havent had experience with those. But maybe thats enough of a hint for you to find something in the docs.

Perhaps its related to some sort of application you are running on this server? After all the message entry contains "Main", which suggest that its a part of something spread over several servers? .7/M.

You can find answer on page http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-9-82323-1

A feature was integrated into the Sun Fire platforms ScApp firmware version

5.19.0 (patchID : 114526-01), which will allow the System Controllers (SCs) to

log an "I'm Alive" message to syslog with a reporting interval of 4 hour.

On a Sunfire/Netra 1280/2900, these messages can be turned off via the

"seteventreporting off" command at the lom prompt.
