NAME
evmchmgr - Event Manager channel manager
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/evmchmgr
[-c config_file][
-l log_file]
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 exe-
cutes the commands defined as the monitor and cleanup functions for any channel, at the configured inter-
vals. A channel is not required to be configured with either of these periodic functions. However, the chan-
nel manager ignores any channels which do not have either of these functions.
By default, the channel manager reads its configuration from the
/etc/evmchannel.conf
file. To
specify a different configuration file, use the
evmchgmr -c config_file command. If the channel
configuration file is changed while the channel manager is running, use the
evmreload -c command to
instruct the channel manager to reconfigure itself.
The channel manager reconfigures itself when
evmreload -c is run, or upon receipt of a
SIGHUP sig-
nal.
Options
-c config_file Sets the configuration file to config_file. The default configuration file 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.
RETURN VALUES
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
not 0 An error occurred.
