strerr
Receives error messages from the STREAMS log driver.
The strerr daemon receives error messages from the STREAMS log
driver (see the man pages for strlog(7)). By default, additions to the
STREAMS error log files (error.dd-mm) are in the STREAMS error log
directory (/usr/adm/streams).
When first called, strerr creates the log file error.mm-dd. This is a
daily log file where mm indicates the month and dd indicates the day of
the logged messages. strerr then appends error messages to the log file
as they are received from the STREAMS log driver.
NOTE strerr should always be used as a background process as it does not
return the prompt to the user (the only way to stop it is to kill the
process).
Refer to the man pages for strerr(1) for a detailed description of the
output format.

Parameters
-a sys_admin _mail_name
