Disk Array Monitor Utility for UnixWare
DACMON is a utility used to monitor the activities of Mylex Disk Array
Controllers under UnixWare.
Installing DACMON
The installation of this utility is automatic when you install the Global Array
Manager Server software.
DACMON
Syntax:
# dacmon &
It is recommended that this utility be run on the console in the background
by editing the S99GAM file, see “Global Array Manager Server Software
and Utilities for UnixWare” for instructions to run this file. This utility
allows the system administrator to monitor the Mylex Disk Array Controller
system.
When the system is brought up in multi-user mode, the monitoring utility is
automatically loaded. If you wish to load it manually at other times, use the
above syntax.
This utility reports the status of the controller on the screen. It also writes the
controller's activities, including the time they happened, into the file
/usr/adm/dac960mon.log. The recorded activities include status change,
rebuild, standby replacement, etc.
