System messages can alert you to system problems, such as a device that is about to fail. 
By default, many of the messages are displayed on the system console and are stored in /
var/adm

. 

You can display system messages with the dmesg command. Here are some factors to 
keep in mind:

●

A list of the most recent messages is displayed.

●

The /var/adm directory contains several message files. The most recent messages 
are in /var/adm/messages and in /var/adm/messages.0. The oldest are in /var/
adm/messages.3

.

●

Periodically, a new file is created, and the /var/adm/messages.3 file is deleted, /
var/adm/messages.2

 is renamed /var/adm/messages.3, /var/adm/

 is renamed /var/adm/messages.2, and /var/adm/messages.0 is 

renamed /var/adm/messages.1.

The message files may contain not only system messages, but also core dumps and other 
data, which can cause /var/adm to grow quite large. To keep the directory to a 
reasonable size and ensure that future core dumps can be saved, you should remove 
unneeded files periodically. You can automate the task by using crontab. See your Sun 
system documentation for information on crontab.
