Arguments

Name Type Value
verbose optional boolean, default is false Controls whether the module attempts to report specific errors or just that errors exist in general.

Description

The prtdiag module uses /usr/platform/`/bin/uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag -v to check system diagnostic information on Solaris hosts. In verbose mode, the module attempts to display detailed diagnostic information about failed system components. Otherwise, the module only displays whether or not errors/failures exist. If used in non-verbose mode, the prtdiag binary should be run by hand and the full output examined when the module reports that errors/failures exist.

prtdiag requires superuser privileges on the remote host when run via sr.

Examples

  1. To monitor prtdiag: 
         module prtdiag {}
     via remote
