evmreload(8)
NAME
  evmreload - Reload Event Manager configuration files

SYNOPSIS
  /usr/sbin/evmreload [-d] [-a] [-c] [-l] [-n]

OPTIONS
  -c  Reconfigures the EVM channel manager.

  -d  Reconfigures the EVM daemon.

  -l  Reconfigures the EVM logger.

  -n  Syntax checks the event template files and reports errors, but does not
      make any changes effective.

  -a  If a daemon reconfiguration is requested, the reconfiguration request
      will be sent even if there are errors in any template file.  If errors
      exist, there is no guarantee that the new configuration will be
      accepted.

OPERANDS
  None

DESCRIPTION
  The evmreload command posts control events that instruct EVM components to
  reload their configuration files.  It should be run to cause EVM to begin
  using the new configuration any time a configuration file has been changed.

  If no options are specified, the daemon, the channel manager, and the
  logger reload their configurations.

  The daemon should be reconfigured any time its configuration file or event
  template database has changed. The logger should be reconfigured anytime
  its configuration has changed.  The channel manager should be reconfigured
  anytime its configuration has changed.

  Resident EVM components also reload their configuration files on receipt of
  a SIGHUP signal.

  If an activity monitor is specified in the EVM daemon configuration file,
  all counts and timers associated with the monitor are reset.

RESTRICTIONS
  You must be user root to run this command.


EXAMPLES
   1.  The following command will cause the EVM daemon to reconfigure itself:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -d

   2.  The following command will cause the EVM logger to reconfigure itself:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -l

   3.  The following command will cause the EVM channel manager to
       reconfigure itself:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -c

   4.  To syntax check the daemon configuration file without any
       reconfiguration actually occurring, enter the following command:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -n

   5.  To reconfigure both the EVM daemon and the EVM logger, enter the
       following command:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -d -l

   6.  To reconfigure the EVM daemon, the EVM logger, and the EVM channel
       manager, enter the following command:
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload

   7.  The following command will reconfigure the EVM daemon, the EVM logger,
       and the EVM channel manager even if there are errors in the template
       file.
	    /usr/sbin/evmreload -a

EXIT VALUES
