rstatd(1M) rstatd(1M)

NAME

rstatd - kernel statistics server

SYNOPSIS

/usr/lib/netsvc/rstat/rpc.rstatd [-l log_ﬁle][-e-n]

DESCRIPTION

rstatd is an RPC server that returns performance statistics obtained from the kernel. The rup utility

prints this information (see rup(1)).

inetd invokes rstatd through /etc/inetd.conf (see inetd(1M)).

Options

rstatd recognizes the following options and command-line arguments:

-l log_file Log any errors to the named log ﬁle, log_ﬁle. Errors are not logged if the -l option

is not speciﬁed.

Information logged to the ﬁle includes date and time of the error, the host name, pro-

cess ID and name of the function generating the error, and the error message. Note

that different services can share a single log ﬁle because enough information is

included to uniquely identify each error.

-e Exit after serving each RPC request. Using the -e option, the inetd security ﬁle

/var/adm/inetd.sec

can control access to RPC services.

-n Exit only if

• portmap dies (see portmap(1M)),

• another rpc.rstatd registers with portmap,or

• rpc.rstatd becomes unregistered with portmap.

The -n option is more efﬁcient since a new process is not launched for each RPC

request. Note, this option is the default.
