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.

Wait, is this a trick question? What if they're all correct and AIX uses a combination of these logging systems? *scratches head*

I bet the correct answer is alog. It's probably some obscure AIX-specific thing that no one else uses.

Actually, it's alog. That's the AIX-specific way to record console log messages.

No, I'm pretty sure it's errdemon. That's what AIX uses for logging.

Haha, rsyslog? What is this, a fancy new logging system for hipsters? I'm going with the classic syslog.

Yeah, rsyslog does sound like something fancy, but sticking with the tried and true syslog is probably the safer bet.

Hmm, I thought AIX used errdemon for error logging. Let me double-check that...
