NAME

evmchmgr - Event Manager channel manager

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/evmchmgr [-c config_file] [-l log_file]

OPTIONS

-c config_file Sets the configuration file to config_file. The default is /etc/evmchannel.conf. -l log_file Sets message output to log_file. The default is stderr. When the channel manager starts it renames any previous message file by appending .old to its name, and creates a new file.

OPERANDS

None

DESCRIPTION

The EVM channel manager is started automatically by the EVM daemon, and usually should not be run as a stand-alone program. It reads a set of channel definitions from the channel configuration file and executes the commands defined as the monitor and cleanup functions for any channel, at the configured intervals. There is no requirement for any channel to be configured with either of the periodic functions; the channel manager ignores any channels which have neither. By default, the channel manager reads its configuration from /etc/evmchannel.conf. The -c option can be used to override this. If the channel configuration file is changed while the channel manager is running, the evmreload -c command should be used to instruct it to reconfigure itself. The channel manager reconfigures itself when evmreload -c is run, or upon receipt of a SIGHUP signal.

EXIT STATUS

The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. not 0 An error occurred.
