NAME

       cpqarrayd - Arraycontoller monitoringdaemon

SYNTAX

       cpqarrayd [-d] [-v] [-t host [-t host]]

DESCRIPTION

       This  program  is  capable of monitoring HP (Compaq) array controllers. Both the devices controller by the cpqarray driver and devices con-
       trolled by the cciss driver are supported. The program monitors the health status for each logical volume and reports if it  changes.  When
       used on a cciss controller it reports all events on the controller chain.

       The default is to log to the syslog facility, but the program has an option to send traps to a monitoring system.

OPTIONS

       -d     Enable debug output. Combine with -f for best effect.

       -f     Do not fork into the background. Only useful for debugging.

       -v     More verbose output during startup.

       -t <host>
	      Specify a host that should receive traps. You can specify this option at max ten times. The host is in the format host:port.

STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0      Successful startup.

       1      An error occurred.

       2      No supported controller detected.

BUGS

       Default port is udp/161 instead of the expected udp/162. This is not really a bug, but a feature in net-snmp version 5.0.x.

EXAMPLES

       To run this program the standard way type:

       cpqarrayd -t traphost:162

       To debug run it like this:

       cpqarrayd -v -f -d -t traphost:162
