Hitachi Dynamic Link Manager Software Users Guide for AIX

Logs might be collected in layers below HDLM, such as for the HBA driver. For
more details, see the AIX documentation.
Types of Collected Logs
HDLM collects information on the detected error and trace information in the
integrated trace file, trace file, error logs, HDLM utility's log file, and syslog.
You can use the error information to examine the status of an error and
analyze the cause of the error.
The following table lists and describes the error information that can be
collected in logs.
