Steve, excellent post!

Edit /vol/vol0/etc/syslog.conf and modify the line for /dev/console.

If you comment it out, then no messages are written to the console. Or you can specify the minimum severity of messages written to the console. For example, *.warning shows warnings and above, which excludes "info" and "notice" level messages.

You should leave the configuration for /etc/messages alone since netapp autosupport reads that file.

See the man page for syslog.conf for details.
