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.

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.
