The systems error log (errpt) is no longer cleared ("errclear 0"). Previously the errorlog has been cleared after each run of the plugin, and a backup file of the error log has been created as /var/log/errpt_$DATE.log.

This is no longer the case, as a less intrusive way to avoid redundant log messages has been established.
