NAME

ndmpd - manages NDMP service

SYNOPSIS

ndmpd [ on | off | status | probe [ session ] | kill [ session ] ]

DESCRIPTION

The ndmpd command controls and displays information about the daemon responsible for providing Network Data Management Protocol service.

OPTIONS

on
Enables NDMP request-handling by the daemon. If you want NDMP to be enabled after each filer reboot, put the ndmpd on command in the /etc/rc file.

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 ses_sion 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.
