Commands for clearing logs
You can use the omconfig system or omconfig servermodule command to clear the following logs: the alert log, command log,
and hardware or ESM log.
To clear the contents of the alert log, type:
omconfig system alertlog action=clear
or
omconfig servermodule alertlog action=clear
NOTE: Entering an invalid RAC user name may prevent the command log from displaying. Clearing the command log
resolves this condition.
To clear the contents of the command log, type:
omconfig system cmdlog action=clear
or
omconfig servermodule cmdlog action=clear
To clear the contents of the ESM log, type:
omconfig system esmlog action=clear
or
omconfig servermodule esmlog action=clear
NOTE:
