#### Interpreting Log Files and System Messages

With the Oracle Solaris OS running on the server, you have the full complement of Oracle Solaris OS files and commands available for collecting information and for troubleshooting.

If POST or the Oracle Solaris PSH features do not indicate the source of a fault, check the message buffer and log files for notifications for faults. Hard disk drive faults are usually captured by the Oracle Solaris message files.

Use the `dmesg` command to view the most recent system message. To view the system messages log file, view the contents of the `/var/adm/messages` file.
