Startup File

The startup ﬁle performs the following tasks:

•Cleans up any migrations or reloads that were in progress when the system went down by running

/etc/dmfs/usr/utils/dmfsck.It writes the bitﬁle ID of each ﬁle that it recovers to standard output, one per line. This utility can also be run manually. For information, refer to the Utility Reference chapter in System Administrator’s Guide to Using DataMgr.

•Starts up the DataMgr daemons for the components that are installed on this machine. Startup uses the following daemons:

DataMgr Components	Daemons

BFS	bfsd

SLD	sld

SSD (on AMASS server)	ssd

DMFS (on all clients)	dmfsd

The table below lists the system startup ﬁles modiﬁed by DataMgr during installation. After modiﬁcation, these system startup ﬁles run the /etc/rc.dm script, which contains the DataMgr startup commands.
