Output destination
We recommend that you configure
the system so that information at
the Information level and higher is

Syslogs can be checked using a text
editor.
The syslog file path is
specified in the file /etc/

When you want to configure the system so that HDLM messages are
output to syslog, specify user for the facility in the /etc/syslog.conf
or /etc/rsyslog.conf file. The following shows an example where the
system function name is user, and messages at the info level or higher
are output to the /tmp/syslog.user.log file:
user.info /tmp/syslog.user.log
