On a related item to my previous post " Syslog not processing Authenticatio=
n messages on ES40", I'm also having similar issues on my GS160 Tru64 serve=
r.

In this case, the logs in /var/adm/syslog.dated/current are being updated, =
but authentication messages aren't being sent to /dev/console. This was wor=
king fine before I rebooted the server. After the reboot, authentication me=
ssages were no longer sent to /dev/console. Typically each day at midnight =
I should see three messages in my console logs.
-EVM logger: Closed eventlog......
-EVM logger: Started eventlog.....
-EVM: Mark Event.

Since the reboot, these don't appear.
Looked at /var/evm/adm/logfiles/evmlogger.log and found two errors.
1) evmlogger: Failed to open eventlog "/dev/console": Bad file number
2) evmlogger: Failed to write to eventlog "console_log"

Any ideas of why this is failing, and any possible solutions.

I thought I had this solved a while back, but it's still an issue.
