I have a few new systems I am installing. They are stand alone boxes with just a serial term connection into them for a local terminal (no HMC). Nothing fancy at all is going on - just an AIX server running a couple applications.

I have a basic install. I don't use tivoli either. However I'm finding things that are logging to the tivoli sub directories like to "/var/opt/tivoli/ep/logs/nonstopbundle.log and nonstop.log".

What is the proper way going about to stop this?

Thank you,

Those are part of the IBM Systems Director Common Agent (and related filesets).

There were some defects in older versions of the cas.agent and DirectorCommonAgent filesets that caused those files to continually grow (versus being trimmed). You can either:

a. If you're using IBM Systems Director, then install the latest Common Agent

Downloadable from here:

b. If you're not using IBM Systems Director, then you can uninstall the Common Agent

installp -gu cas.agent DirectorCommonAgent DirectorPlatformAgent

Thank you. I read about it some more after reading what you posted. I ended up just stopping the platform_agent, the cas_agent and the cimsys. Rather not remove it incase it comes up that I would need it later...

Hopefully that's the right thing to do in this case. I'll comment those out of the inittab once I'm sure things are OK.

Thank you for getting me in the right direction.
