mdlogd

- Solaris Volume Manager daemon

Synopsis

mdlogd 

Description

mdlogd implements a simple daemon that watches the system console looking for messages written by the Solaris Volume Manger. When a Solaris Volume Manager message is detected, mdlogd sends a generic SNMP trap.

To enable traps, you must configure mdlogd into the SNMP framework. See Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide.

Usage

mdlogd implements the following SNMP MIB:

SOLARIS-VOLUME-MGR-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN
        IMPORTS
                 enterprises FROM RFC1155-SMI
                 DisplayString FROM SNMPv2-TC;

        -- Sun Private MIB for Solaris Volume Manager


        sun       OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { enterprises 42 }
        sunSVM       OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { sun 104 }

        -- this is actually just the string from /dev/log that
        -- matches the md: regular expressions.
        -- This is an interim SNMP trap generator to provide
        -- information until a more complete version is available.

        -- this definition is a formalization of the old
        -- Solaris DiskSuite mdlogd trap mib.
