Sun Enterprise 250 - need help reviewing messages log - Solaris Newbie

Hello all,

 I need some assistance with reading the following bootup information from my development SUN Enterprise 250 server.  I'm already aware of the bad fan, is there anything else I should be concerned about (or look into it).

There are no fatal errors that I can see at a glance. (except the fan)

Are there any symptoms, or are you just curious about the messages?

Well, it looks like sendmail is not properly configured.

Actually - This server crashed last night and I need to figure out what may have caused it.  according to my networking monitoring software (Whats up Gold) this system became unresponsive around 1AM.  It runs Telnet, SSH and apache services.   I searched the messages log but was unable to find anything around the time it crashed.  So all I have it this.  Are there any diagnostics I can run that my give me info on the health of this box?


Any maintenance tips for old sun Solaris boxes would be very much appreciated.

TIA!

You can use prtdiag (commandline command to check it out), type in:

/usr/platform/`uname -m`/sbin/prtdiag

the boot up message looks ok, you need to have a look check /var/adm/message* files for any error message before the reboot time

zzzztj has a good point.  take a look at the output from the command;

 df -lk

See if any of the disks are full or in the 90% range.  It is possible that you had a disk full condition, and that rebooting cleared the problem.  It is likely to occur again if the disk sizes are too smal.

The messages that you posted were between 08:42:48  and 08:51:25. They might not relate to what had caused your server crash at 1:00 am time. Do you have any log records around 1 am?

Thet are harmless errormessages from the drivers trying to be loaded even though there are no devices that will use them.

You can do:
metainit hsp001

and it will supress the message about hotspares.

I ran  df -k and I get this:

/proc                         0                    0                 0                0%              /proc

/b01/s/home/jdoe      9147129         8827214       228444        98%              /home/jdoe

It looks like we do have /dev/md/dsk/d8 almost full.  Correct me if I'm wrong but since this partition doesn't contain any system files does would it have caused the crash?  By the way why would the partitions on this server only show as /dev/md/dsk/d0 & d8 instead of something like /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s2 etc.
