NAME

       ndmpd - Network Data Management Protocol daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ndmpd [-d]

DESCRIPTION

       The ndmpd daemon handles client Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) requests. NDMP is an open, enterprise-wide, network-based data man-
       agement protocol used for backup and recovery. The ndmpd daemon enables users to manage data backup  and  recovery  using  Data	Management
       Application  (DMA)  clients.  The NDMP protocol is used to coordinate data movement and control between a DMA and an NDMP server or between
       two NDMP servers.

       By default, ndmpd is disabled.

OPTIONS

       The following option is supported:

       -d

	   Debugging mode; log file will be created.

EXIT STATUS

       0    Successful completion.

       1    An error occurred that prevented the ndmpd daemon from initializing, such as failure to fork a process, mutex initialization.

       2    Invalid command-line options were specified.

FILES

       /usr/lib/ndmp/ndmpd

	   Network data management protocol server binary.

       /var/ndmp/ndmp.log

	   Network data management protocol log messages file. This file is deleted upon reboot.

       /var/ndmp/dumpdates

	   A text file that stores information about the date and the level of dump backups.

NOTES

       The ndmpd daemon is managed by the service management facility (smf(5)), under the service identifier:

	 svc:/system/ndmpd:default

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed  using  svcadm(1M).  The  ser-
       vice's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.

NAME

       fpsd - Fp-scrubber daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/fps/fpsd

DESCRIPTION

       fpsd is a user-level daemon that periodically runs non-intrusive tests to validate proper functioning of FPU (Floating Point Unit) hardware
       in the system. A fault management action is initiated by means of fmd(1M), in case an error is detected by the test.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0

	   Successful completion.

       non-zero

	   An error occurred.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

SEE ALSO

       svcs(1), fmd(1M), svcadm(1M), svccfg(1M), attributes(5), smf(5)

NOTES

       The fpsd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

	 svc:/system/fpsd:default

       You can use svccfg(1M) to change the default fpsd behavior:

	 Property Name		  Type	   Description
	 -------------		  ----	   -----------
	 config/exclude_cpus	  astring  comma delimited list of
					    CPU IDs to be excluded
					    from proactive testing.

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed  using  svcadm(1M).  The  ser-
       vice's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.

       Disabling  the  service can increase system's vulnerability to silent data corruption, if a fault were to develop in an FPU within the sys-
       tem.
