rpc.statd(8) System Manager's Manual rpc.statd(8)
NAME
rpc.statd, statd - Network status monitor daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/rpc.statd [-c]
OPTIONS
Available only on TruCluster Server systems. This option starts the clusterwide network status daemon, which helps provide highly available
NFS service. Do not use -c directly. Highly available NFS service is configured by default and typically does not require intervention. If
you do need to start the clusterwide network status daemon, use the CAA command, caa_start cluster_lockd.
For more information, see the TruCluster Server Administration manual.
DESCRIPTION
The rpc.statd daemon monitors the status of the client and server sites in response to a request made by the local rpc.lockd daemon. When
a site failure is detected, the rpc.statd daemon notifies the local rpc.lockd daemon, which then processes the recovery of the locked files
or file regions.
RESTRICTIONS
The crash of a site is only detected on its recovery.
FILES
A directory created by the statd daemon. Each file name in the directory is the host name of a client or server that the statd daemon will
notify upon its recovery. A backup directory created by the statd daemon. A file created by the statd daemon to store its state number.
