3.7.0 HP StorageWorks HP Scalable NAS File Serving Software administration guide - HP Scalable NAS 3.7 for Linux (AG513-96002, October 2009)

Process monitoring
The mxinit utility is started automatically as a daemon on each server and monitors
all HP Scalable NAS processes running there. (You can start another instance of
mxinit to perform other tasks provided by the utility.)
If a HP Scalable NAS process dies unexpectedly on a server, mxinit will restart it
if possible. However, certain process failures may force a restart of that particular
server.
NOTE:
When you invoke mxinit to start HP Scalable NAS, by default it continues running
and monitors processes. If you do not want mxinit to monitor processes, invoke
it with the -M (or --no-monitor) option. It will then exit after it completes the
options you specified.
View HP Scalable NAS process status
You can use the mxinit utility or the pmxs script to display the status of HP Scalable
NAS processes and modules. To display status information with mxinit, either
invoke it with no options or specify the --status option. You can also use the
command /etc/init.d/pmxs status to display this information. You do not
need to be user root.
