How to report errors from errlog to sendmail?

[baggetta]

Is there a quick way to start reporting errors in the errorlog to a unique email address? I want to be notified when problems happen in real-time.

Run diag

Select Task Selection(Diagnostics, Advanced Diagnostics, Service Aids, etc.)

Then select Periodic Diagnostics

Then select Modify the error notification mailing list
and add you name to the list.

Make sure the Automatic Error Log Analysis is enabled.
This will allow error log analysis to be performed every
time a hardware error is put into the error log and you
will be notified via email.

Thanks for the tip, but this will only check CPU. I needed something for any error generated. Acutally, I got a tip from IBM on how to do this with email.
Doc can be found at:

Or, if you don't want to mess with ODM, the FAQ mentioned by WiccaChic (faq52-2445) works fine, and you don't run the possibility of typing something wrong and corrupting ODM.
