There's a way to avoid certain entries appearing in the error report indefinitely. You can use this for example for tape cleaning messages:
The following command shows you the entries that are written to the error log, but not reported on:
# errpt -t -F Report=0Let's say you don't want any reports on errors with ID D1A1AE6F:
# errupdate [Enter]With "Report=False", errors are still logged in your logfile (usually /var/adm/ras/errlog). If you don't want them to be logged to the error log, for example when you have an errnotify (which still starts an action, also for error ID's with "Report=False"), you can change "Report=False" to "Log=False".
=D1A1AE6F: [Enter]
Report=False [Enter]
[Ctrl-D]
[Ctrl-D]
