nfslogd(1M) nfslogd(1M)

is supported by the ﬁle system where the buffer ﬁle resides.

IDLE_TIME Speciﬁes the amount of time, in seconds, the daemon should sleep while waiting

for more information to be placed in the buffer ﬁle.

IDLE_TIME also deter-

mines how often the conﬁguration ﬁle will be reread. The value of

IDLE_TIME

must be between 1 and INT_MAX.

MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE

The nfslogd periodically cycles its logs. MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE

speciﬁes the

maximum number of log ﬁles to save. When

MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE

reached, the oldest ﬁles will be overwritten as new log ﬁles are created. These

ﬁles will be saved with a numbered extension, beginning with

filename.0 .

The oldest ﬁle will have the highest numbered extension up to the value

conﬁgured for

MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE

. The value of

MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE

must be between 1 and INT_MAX.

CYCLE_FREQUENCY

Speciﬁes how often, in hours, the log ﬁles are cycled.

CYCLE_FREQUENCY

used to insure that the log ﬁles do not get too large. The value of

CYCLE_FREQUENCY

must be between 1 and INT_MAX.

MAPPING_UPDATE_INTERVAL

Speciﬁes the time interval, in seconds, between updates of the records in the ﬁle

handle to path mapping tables. Instead of updating the

atime of a record each

time that record is accessed, it is only updated if it has aged based on this

parameter. The record access time is used by the pruning routine to determine

whether the record should be removed from the database. The value of this

parameter must be between 1 and INT_MAX.

PRUNE_TIMEOUT Speciﬁes when a database record times out, in hours. If the time that elapsed

since the record was last accessed is greater than PRUNE_TIMEOUT

then the

record can be pruned from the database. The default value for

PRUNE_TIMEOUT is 168 hours (7 days). The value of PRUNE_TIMEOUT

must

be between 1 and

INT_MAX.

EXIT STATUS

The following exit values are returned:

0 Daemon started successfully.

1 Daemon failed to start.
