Resolution

Path/hardware failure will cause the DMP daemon to log error messages to the /etc/vx/dmpevents.log file. This is a new feature introduced in Veritas Volume Manager 4.1MP2 and above.  
 

 
To disable dmpevents.log, you must stop the event source daemon (vxesd) using the following command:
 

 
vxddladm stop eventsource
 

 
To disable the event source daemon across reboots, comment out the following line in the vxvm-startup2 script by putting a "#" character at the beginning of the line, for example:
 

 
#vxdddladm start eventsource
