Hardware Monitor Conﬁguration Files

Peripheral Status Monitor (PSM) Conﬁguration File

Peripheral Status Monitor (PSM) Conﬁguration File

Interaction between the PSM and a hardware event monitor is controlled by a PSM conﬁguration ﬁle. This ﬁle deﬁnes what severity levels will result in DOWN status being reported, and what action, if any, is required to return the hardware to UP status. Any hardware event monitor that does not include a PSM conﬁguration ﬁle will not be monitored by the PSM.

NOTE When Do Changes Made to a PSM Conﬁguration File Take Effect?

The PSM checks its conﬁguration ﬁles every 10 seconds, so any changes will be invoked when the ﬁle is checked. If the hardware conﬁguration has changed and the PSM is communicating with all the monitors to determine what their resources are, it may take a few minutes for any changes to a conﬁguration ﬁle to take effect.

File Names

The ﬁle naming convention for the PSM conﬁguration ﬁles is:

/var/stm/config/tools/monitor/monitorname.psmcfg

monitorname is the name of the monitor executable.

File Format

The PSM conﬁguration ﬁle contains a single entry using the following conventions:

•The entry consists of keywords deﬁning the characteristic to be conﬁgured, followed by a value assigned to the keyword.

•There must be at least one space between the keyword and each value.

•Comments begin with the pound character (#) and continue until the end of the line. A comment may occur on a line by itself or after a blank space following the value for a keyword.

Table 5-5 identiﬁes the keywords that make up the entry in the PSM conﬁguration ﬁle. The entry must contain the keywords identiﬁed as required.
