Per-Port Monitor Configuration Scripts

Per-port monitor configuration scripts are administered by using the sacadm command.

sacadm -g -p pmtag [ -z script ]

The -g option is used to print, install, or replace the per-port monitor configuration script. A -g option requires a -p option. The -g option with only a -p option prints the per-port monitor configuration script for port monitor pmtag. The -g option with a -p option and a -z option installs the file script as the per-port monitor configuration script for port monitor pmtag. Or, if /etc/saf/pmtag/_config exists, these options replace _config with the contents of script. Other combinations of options with -g are invalid.

In the _config file, the command /usr/bin/daemon is assumed to start a daemon process that builds and holds together a STREAMS multiplexor. By installing this configuration script, the command can be executed just before starting the port monitor that requires it.

# build a STREAMS multiplexor
run /usr/bin/daemon
runwait echo $PMTAG is starting > /dev/console
