prestoctl_svc
prestoctl_svc(8) System Manager's Manual prestoctl_svc(8)
Name
prestoctl_svc - Prestoserve control daemon
Syntax
/usr/etc/prestoctl_svc [ -n ]
Description
The RPC-based daemon allows remote client systems to monitor and administer a Prestoserve cache and its driver. The client system does not
have to be running the Prestoserve software. The daemon can be started manually, or it can be started each time you reboot by adding the
command to the file of the machine running the Prestoserve software.
You must run the daemon if you want remote client systems to be able to use the command to monitor and manage your system and if you want
to use the command. Refer to and to for more information.
Options
-n Allows remote client systems to manage a Prestoserve cache and its driver. The -n option allows remote client systems to change the
size of a Prestoserve cache and to change the state of a Prestoserve cache by using remote procedure calls. The -n option is useful
when evaluating or demonstrating Prestoserve capabilities. Because of security problems, it is recommended that the -n option not
be used on production machines.
Files
Generic Prestoserve control device.
File where you add the
command.
