NAME

       kcmond - EMS Kernel Tunable Monitor daemon

SYNOPSIS


		kcmond

DESCRIPTION

       The  kcmond  daemon  monitors  the consumption of kernel resources. It is an Event Monitoring Services (EMS - see ems(5)) monitor. The data
       collected by kcusage can be displayed by kcusage(1M).

       kcmond includes a resource dictionary file (/etc/opt/resmon/dictionary/kcmond_01.dict) which is used by EMS to identify resources for moni-
       toring.

       Users can control the monitoring of each kernel tunable by setting a percentage value for the consumption of that resource. For example, if
       the user sets a value of 75 for nproc, the Kernel Tunable Monitor will report an event when the number of  processes  reaches  75%  of  the
       nproc setting.

       The  kcalarm(1M) command is used to add, modify and delete kernel tunable alarms. The kcusage(1M) command is used to view data collected by
       kcmond. The kcweb(1M) command provides a Web-based, graphical user interface to control alarms and view usage data, including graphs of the
       usage data.

       kcmond is a light weight daemon that will exit after being idle for ten minutes.

SUPPORTED PARAMETERS

       For a complete list of the kernel tunables that can be monitored with this daemon, see the kcusage(1M) manpage.

DEPENDENCIES

       kcmond must be run by the registrar process of the Event Monitoring Service (EMS) and is not designed to be run from the command line.

FILES

       Executable.

       The  resource dictionary for kcmond, describes the location (e.g. /system/kernel_tunables/nproc) of kernel tunables in the resource hierar-
       chy and references kcmond as the resource monitor.

NAME

       SUNW.SCTelemetry, SCTelemetry - resource type for collecting data on system resource usage

DESCRIPTION

       SUNW.SCTelemetry  is  the  resource  type that enables you to collect data on the usage of system resources. SUNW.SCTelemetry stores system
       resource usage data in a Java DB database for seven days. The resource of type SUNW.SCTelemetry has a dependency on the	resource  of  type
       SUNW.derby. For more information, see the SUNW.derby(5) man page.

       The extension properties associated with the SUNW.SCTelemetry resource type are as follows:

       Extended_accounting_cleanup(boolean)

	   Specifies  whether  the  extended  accounting  log  file is cleaned up, that is whether historical data is deleted. Possible values for
	   Extended_accounting_cleanup are TRUE and FALSE.

	   Category		       Optional

	   Default		       TRUE

	   Tunable		       Anytime

       Monitor_retry_count(integer)

	   Controls fault-monitor restarts. The property indicates the number of times that the process monitor facility restarts the fault  moni-
	   tor.  The property corresponds to the -n option passed to the pmfadm(1M) command. The Resource Group Manager (RGM) counts the number of
	   restarts in a specified time window. See the Monitor_retry_interval property for more information. Note that Monitor_retry_count refers
	   to the restarts of the fault monitor itself, not to the resource of type SUNW.SCTelemetry.

	   Category		       Optional

	   Default		       2

	   Tunable		       Anytime

       Monitor_retry_interval(integer)

	   Indicates  the  time  window  in  minutes during which the RGM counts fault-monitor failures. The property corresponds to the -t option
	   passed to the pmfadm(1M) command.  If the number of times the fault monitor fails exceeds the value of  the	Monitor_retry_count  prop-
	   erty, the process monitor facility does not restart the fault monitor.

	   Category		       Optional

	   Default		       2 minutes

	   Tunable		       Anytime

       Probe_timeout(integer)

	   Specifies the timeout value, in seconds, for the probe.

	   Category		       Optional

	   Default		       30 seconds

	   Tunable		       Anytime

       Sampling_interval(integer)

	   Specifies how often monitoring data is collected. The Telemetry_sampling_interval property must have a value of between 30 and 3600.

	   Category		       Mandatory

	   Default		       60

	   Tunable		       Anytime
