ndmpd - manages NDMP service
ndmpd [ on | off | status | probe [ session ] | kill [ ses_sion
] ]
The ndmpd command controls and displays information about
the daemon responsible for providing Network Data Management
Protocol service.
- on
- Enables NDMP request-handling by the daemon.
- off
- Disables NDMP request-handling by the daemon.
Processing continues for requests
that are already in progress. New requests
are rejected. By default, NDMP service is
disabled at system startup.
- status
- Displays the current state of NDMP service.
probe [ session ] Displays diagnostic information about the
specified session. If session is not
specified, information about all sessions
is displayed.
kill [ session ] Signals the specified session to stop processing
its current requests and move to
an inactive state. If session is not
specified, all active sessions are signaled.
This allows hung sessions to be
cleared without the need for a reboot,
since the off command waits until all sessions
are inactive before turning off the
NDMP service.
The following should be added to the /etc/rc file to enable
NDMP service at system startup.
ndmpd on
/etc/rc
system initialization command script
na_rc(5).
