     NAME
          dgs_strerr - Data General streams interface daemon

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/sbin/dgs_strerr

     DESCRIPTION
          The dgs_strerr daemon processes information it receives from
          the /dev/log pseudo-device. It creates an AV/Alert machine
          initiated packet with this information and forwards it to
          the dgsvc_d daemon. With AV/Alert support enabled, for Data
          General warranty and contract customers, the daemon will
          automatically send the information to the designated Data
          General service center.


          The dgs_strerr daemon should be used instead of the strerr
          and strace daemons.

     EXAMPLES
          The following error was received by the /dev/log pseudo-
          device, sent to the dgs_strerr daemon, and written to
          /var/adm/dgsvcmgr/dgsvcd_log:

          (11-7-91 9:0:2) (dgs_strerr) Error : message

          This message indicates that a STREAMS driver or module sent
          the message "message" to the /dev/log daemon.

     FILES
          /dev/log
                            The pseudo-device that receives messages
                            from STREAMS drivers or modules.
          /var/adm/dgsvcmgr/dgsvcd_log
                            The log file for dgs_strerr.
          /var/adm/dgsvcmgr/.sv.pipe
                            The pipe to communicate with dgsvc_d.

     DIAGNOSTICS
          dgs_strerr exits if:
           1) It cannot initiate a process to run in
           2) It cannot open the /dev/log pseudo-device
           3) It cannot connect to dgsvc_d to report an error
