NAME

dr_daemon– Enterprise 10000 Dynamic Reconfiguration daemon

SYNOPSIS

dr_daemon [-a]

DESCRIPTION

The dr_daemon is a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) program that provides the interface to the Sun Enterprise 10000 Dynamic Reconfiguration (DR) driver, dr(7D).

There are several applications that run on the SSP that provide a user interface to DR: hostview, the dr shell, and ADR commands (addboard, deleteboard, moveboard, and showusage). See dr(7D). See hostview(1M) in the Sun Enterprise 10000 SSP 3.5 Reference Manual and dr(1M) in the Sun Enterprise 10000 Dynamic Reconfiguration Reference Manual.

This daemon runs only on domains that are running DR version 2.0. To check the DR version that is running on a domain, use the domain_status -m command on the System Service Processor (SSP) 3.5.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

-a

Disable communications with the Alternate Pathing (AP) daemon. See ap_daemon(1M) in the Sun Enterprise Server Alternate Pathing Reference Manual.

CONFIGURATION INFORMATION

The /platform/SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise-10000/lib/dr_daemon RPC program name is DRPROG, its RPC program number is 300326, and its underlying protocol is TCP. It is invoked as an inetd server using the TCP transport. The UID required for access to the daemon is ssp. This UID can be a non-login UID. The entry for the daemon in the /etc/inetd.conf file is:

300326/4 tli rpc/tcp wait root \ /platform/SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise-10000/lib/dr_daemon

The daemon's only clients are Hostview and DR. Hostview provides a GUI interface; dr(1M) is a command-line interface for non-windowing environments. The DR daemon uses syslog(3) to report status and error messages. These error messages are logged with the LOG_DAEMON facility and the LOG_ERR and LOG_NOTICE priorities. dr_daemon communicates by way of RPC with the Alternate Pathing (AP) daemon to notify the AP software when controllers are attached to and detached from the system, or to gather information about the system configuration. See ap_daemon(1M) in the Sun Enterprise Server Alternate Pathing Reference Manual
