Load Balancer scripts (metricserver, cpuload, memload) running on multi-CPU Solaris machines produce unwanted console messages
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
On multi-CPU Solaris machines, metricserver, cpuload, and memload scripts can produce unwanted console messages. Ignore these messages.
 
Resolving the problem
When running on multi-CPU Solaris machines, metricserver, cpuload, and memload scripts can produce unwanted console messages. This behavior is due to the use of the VMSTAT system command to gather CPU and memory statistics from the kernel. Some messages that VMSTAT return indicate that the state of kernel changes. The scripts are unable to handle these messages, resulting in unnecessary console messages from the shell.

Examples of these console messages are:
/opt/ibm/edge/lb/ms/script/memload[29]: TOTAL=: syntax error
/opt/ibm/edge/lb/ms/script/memload[31]: LOAD=4*100/0: divide by zero
/opt/ibm/edge/lb/ms/script/memload[29]: TOTAL=659664+: more tokens expected
Ignore these messages.
