rpc.statd(8)

NAME

rpc.statd, statd - Network status monitor daemon

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/rpc.statd [-c]

OPTIONS

-c Available only on TruCluster Server systems. This option starts the clusterwide network status daemon, which helps provide highly available NFS service. Do not use -c directly. Highly available NFS service is configured by default and typically does not require intervention. If you do need to start the clusterwide network status daemon, use the CAA command, caa_start cluster_lockd. For more information, see the TruCluster Server Administration manual.

DESCRIPTION

The rpc.statd daemon monitors the status of the client and server sites in response to a request made by the local rpc.lockd daemon. When a site failure is detected, the rpc.statd daemon notifies the local rpc.lockd daemon, which then processes the recovery of the locked files or file regions.

RESTRICTIONS

The crash of a site is only detected on its recovery.

FILES

/etc/sm A directory created by the statd daemon. Each file name in the directory is the host name of a client or server that the statd daemon will notify upon its recovery. /etc/sm.bak A backup directory created by the statd daemon. /etc/state A file created by the statd daemon to store its state number.
