NAME

       krsd - kernel registry services daemon

SYNOPSIS

       seconds]

DESCRIPTION

       saves  data, flagged as persistent in the core kernel KRS tree, to files on disk.  These files are read when the system is booted, in order
       to restore the aforementioned persistent data.

       When running in daemon mode, sleeps, waking periodically to check if any persistent data have changed since the last save.   If	persistent
       data have changed, the new state of the data is saved to disk.  Otherwise, sleeps for another period of time and then repeats the process.

       When running in one time (non-daemon) mode, unconditionally saves persistent data to disk and then exits.

       Normally, is executed in daemon mode by init(1M).  The entry for will cause to be respawned automatically if it is terminated.

       uses the message logging facility to log all activity.

       Persistent KRS data are maintained in files based on the class of the data in question.	Currently, the following classes are recognized:

	      Data that apply to the system in general,
		   regardless of what configuration is booted.	This data is saved in the file

	      Data specific to a given bootable configuration.
		   This data is saved in the file

       only saves the class; the class is managed by the kernel configuration tools (see kconfig(5)).

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

       One time     mode, unconditionally save persistent data to disk, then exit.

       Run from     parent does not spawn a child nor exit.  Required if from inittab is to work properly.

       Set the delay time to
		    seconds seconds.  This is the time interval between attempted saves of persistent data.  The default interval is 300 seconds.

NAME

       mk_kernel - load a kernel configuration from a system file

SYNOPSIS

       path_name] system_file]

DESCRIPTION

       reads  configuration information from the system file (see system(4)) and applies those changes to a kernel configuration (see kconfig(5)).
       performs a function similar to that of but has some semantic differences in order to preserve compatibility with previous  releases.   will
       build a new kernel executable only if needed to effect the requested changes.  may reuse existing kernel executables when possible.

   Options
       recognizes the following options.

       Specify the target kernel path.

		 If  the target kernel path specified is changes are applied to the currently running kernel configuration.  They will take effect
		 immediately if possible; otherwise, they will take effect at next boot.

		 If the target kernel path specified is of the form changes are applied to the	saved  kernel  configuration  named  config.   The
		 changes will not take effect at next boot unless that saved kernel configuration was already marked for use at next boot.

		 If  the target kernel name is a single word containing no slashes, that name is used as the name of a saved kernel configuration.
		 The changes are applied to that saved kernel configuration.  The changes will not take effect at next boot unless that saved ker-
		 nel configuration was already marked for use at next boot.

		 If  the  target  kernel  path is not one of the forms specified above, then exits with an error.  Other locations for kernel exe-
		 cutable files are no longer supported.

		 If the option is not specified, the changes are applied to the kernel configuration called The changes will not  take	effect	at
		 next boot unless that kernel configuration was already marked for use at next boot.

       Specify the HP-UX system description file.
		 If this option is not specified, the system file is used.  For details see system(4).

       Verbose mode.  (Has no effect; retained for backward compatibility.)

RETURN VALUE

       returns 0 upon normal completion; it returns 1 if an error occurred.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Messages  and warnings are sent to Messages from and other commands are displayed when invoked from Errors cause to halt immediately; warn-
       ings allow the program to continue.

EXAMPLES

		     Uses the default HP-UX system description file
	      The changes are applied to the currently running kernel configuration, marked to take effect at next boot.

		     Uses the system description file

		     Uses the system description file
	      The changes are applied to the saved kernel configuration called

WARNINGS

       Do not manually modify the contents of the kernel configuration directories.
