Power Management with AlterPath™ PM Integration
a) Edit /etc/portslave/pslave.conf file as follows:
s1.protocol ipdu
b) Save the pslave.conf file and enter the following command to activate the new
configuration.
[root@CAS root]# runconf
Step 8 - Restart the pmd process for the new configuration file to take effect.
pmd is a Linux daemon process to control the communication between ACS and
PM.
a) Execute the ps command to note the current pmd process
[root@CAS root]# ps -fe|grep pmd
878 root 644 S /bin/pmd
1108 root 552 S grep pmd
b) Restart the pmd process by issuing the following command.
[root@CAS root]# daemon.sh restart PMD
The system prompts the following:
[root@CAS root]# Sep 22 14:32:04 src_dev_log@CAS showlogmsg:/bin/daemon.sh:
CONFIG: Network daemon [pmd] started
c) Check to see if the process restarted. Note the process ID, which should be
different from the earlier executed
ps command.
[root@CAS root]# ps -fe|grep pmd
1126 root 680 S /bin/pmd
1130 root 552 S grep pmd
