NAME

       siainit - SIA (Security Integration Architecture) initialization command

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/siainit

DESCRIPTION

       The  siainit command is the SIA's initialization command and is executed only at a reboot. The siainit command informs the configured secu-
       rity mechanisms of a reboot and allows each security mechanism to do its own reboot initialization.

       The siainit command is not a general user level command and is intended to execute only from the /sbin/rc3.d/S27sia startup script. If  you
       use this command at times other than reboot, the results are undetermined.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Indicates  that	SIA  and the configured security mechanisms were successfully initialized on the reboot.  Indicates that SIA or one of the
       security mechanisms is improperly configured.

CLUSTER NOTE

       In a cluster, returning SIADFAIL from the siad_init() routine causes the siainitgood file to be removed. This causes other cluster  members
       that have applications or utilities that use SIA to begin to return failures.

NAME

       siad_init  - initialization routine for SIA (Security Integration Architecture)

LIBRARY

       Standard C library - libc.so and libc.a

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sia.h>
       #include <siad.h>

       int siad_init(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The siad_init() routine is called from siainit() to do mechanism-specific processing once per reboot.

RETURN VALUES

       The  siad_init() routine returns either SIASUCCESS or SIAFAIL.  A return of SIADFAIL from this routine will prevent the system from reboot-
       ing. Consequently the SIADFAIL response should only be used if a security risk or root login failure is assumed.

       In a cluster, if the siainitgood file is lost for any reason, other cluster members that have applications or utilities that use  SIA  will
       experience return failures.

ERRORS

       The  errno  values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface, from dependent (siad_*) routines, or from malloc.  Possible errors
       include resource constraints (no memory) and various authentication failures.
