There's something strange with fmd in update 6. On four identical machines (Netra T2000) all installed thru jumpstart (same configuration, same packages, same patches, same firmware) fmd randomly refuses to start after reboot.
And it loops ...
Running with debugging on I get:
Core dumps unfortunately don't make much sense to me.
Has anyone experienced similar problems?
Thank you,

I am importing data into a new database using bcp (ASE 11.0) on Solaris 5.7. I keep getting a core dump error when my ksh script attempts to load one table. All other tables load fine. If I load the table directly from the command line without a script the table loads fine.
Does anybody know... (1 Reply)

Hi guys,
just want to know which core file pattern is best to set for core dumps:
1) per-process file name pattern
or
2) global file name pattern.
I will really appreciate an explanation why the chosen one is better.
Thanks a lot guys. (2 Replies)
I have compiled GhostPDL that provides a shell script pcl2pdf that calls the executable pcl6.
pcl6 compiled with no errors using gmake and gcc. Running pcl2pdf generates a core dump when trying to convert a pcl file to pdf.
I have installed the Ghost fonts. Does anyone have GhostPDL compiled... (1 Reply)

fmd
fmd(1M) System Administration Commands fmd(1M)NAME
fmd - fault manager daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/fm/fmd/fmd [-V] [-f file] [-o opt=val] [-R dir]
DESCRIPTION
fmd is a daemon that runs in the background on each Solaris system. fmd receives telemetry information relating to problems detected by the
system software, diagnoses these problems, and initiates proactive self-healing activities such as disabling faulty components. When
appropriate, the fault manager also sends a message to the syslogd(1M) service to notify an administrator that a problem has been detected.
The message directs administrators to a knowledge article on Sun's web site, http://www.sun.com/msg/, which explains more about the problem
impact and appropriate responses.
Each problem diagnosed by the fault manager is assigned a Universal Unique Identifier (UUID). The UUID uniquely identifes this particular
problem across any set of systems. The fmdump(1M) utility can be used to view the list of problems diagnosed by the fault manager, along
with their UUIDs and knowledge article message identifiers. The fmadm(1M) utility can be used to view the resources on the system believed
to be faulty. The fmstat(1M) utility can be used to report statistics kept by the fault manager. The fault manager is started automatically
when Solaris boots, so it is not necessary to use the fmd command directly. Sun's web site explains more about what capabilities are cur-
rently available for the fault manager on Solaris.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported
-f file Read the specified configuration file prior to searching for any of the default fault manager configuration files.
-o opt=value Set the specified fault manager option to the specified value. Fault manager options are currently a Private inter-
face; see attributes(5) for information about Private interfaces.
-R dir Use the specified root directory for all pathnames evaluated by the fault manager, instead of the default root (/).
-V Print the fault manager's version to stdout and exit.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion
1 An error occurred which prevented the fault manager from initializing, such as failure to open the telemetry trans-
port.
2 Invalid command-line options were specified.
FILES
/etc/fm/fmd Fault manager configuration directory
/usr/lib/fm/fmd Fault manager library directory
/var/fm/fmd Fault manager log directory

NOTES

svc:/system/fmd:default
The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command. Administrators should not disable the Fault Manager service.
