NAME

sm_symond.conf - list of agents for sm_symond to spawn and retrieve from other hosts

DESCRIPTION

The file /etc/opt/SUNWsymon/sm_symond.conf controls process spawning by sm_symond (1M). The processes most typically dispatched by sm_symond are symon agents.

The sm_symond.conf file is composed of entries that either list an agent and its arguments, or specify agents to run on remote machines.

Local agents are listed, one per line, with the normal command line arguments, and are invoked by sm_symond. Remote agent entries have the following format:

host: agent-type

Each entry is delimited by a newline. Comments may be inserted in the sm_symond.conf file by starting the line with a #.

The remote agent fields are:

host

The name of the remote host where the agent is to be run.

agent-type

The specific type of symon agent being run. Currently, the only agent type supported on remote machines is EventGenerator.
