AUTOFSD-PROBE(1)					      General Commands Manual						  AUTOFSD-PROBE(1)

NAME
       autofsd-probe - probe AutoFS mount/unmount daemon

SYNOPSIS
       $PCP_BINADM_DIR/autofsd-probe [-h host] [-t timeout]

DESCRIPTION
       autofsd-probe will check the status of the autofsd(1) daemon on the specified host.

       Unless directed to another host by the -h option, autofsd-probe will contact the AutoFS daemon on the local host.

       The  AutoFS  file system is built on the Remote Procedure Call (RPC(3)) library routines.  The -t option allows the total timeout and retry
       timeout intervals to be set for all remote procedure call operations used with autofsd-probe.  This option accepts an interval argument	in
       the form described in the PCPintro(1) manual page.

       autofsd-probe  is typically used in an automated fashion from within pmdashping(1) and in conjunction with pmie(1), for monitoring response
       time and service failure.

       By default autofsd-probe will not produce any output, unless there is an error in which case a diagnostic message will be displayed and the
       exit status will indicate the reason for failure.

DIAGNOSTICS
       If  autofsd-probe  succeeds, then 0 will be returned.  If the attempt to establish a connection with autofsd fails, then 2 is returned.	If
       the subsequent attempt to invoke an autofsd response fails, then 1 will be returned.

       In the case of a syntactical command line error, 4 is returned and the usage message is displayed.

PCP ENVIRONMENT
       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP.  On  each	installation,  the
       file  /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables.  The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configura-
       tion file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
