NAME

icodd – instant Capacity on Demand (iCOD) daemon.

SYNOPSIS

Path: /usr/lbin

icodd

DESCRIPTION

icodd is installed and started as part of the iCOD software on all potential iCOD systems, and re-spawns itself if killed. Note that other iCOD commands fail if this daemon is not running because the operations this daemon performs are vital in keeping the complex wide view of the iCOD state current. The following entry is added to /etc/inittab (at the bottom) in order to have icodd start and re-spawn itself:

icod:23456:respawn:/usr/lbin/icodd # iCOD daemon

This daemon is not started on hardware that is not supported under the iCOD program. If icodd is installed and running on a system with iCOD components (processors, cells, memory) present, it sends daily asset report e-mail to HP (if configured to send asset reports), tracks temporary capacity, sends exception notifications, and maintains a healthy iCOD state.

For more information about the functions that icodd performs for iCOD systems, view the iCOD User's Guide located at /usr/share/doc/icodUserGuide.pdf.

The icodd daemon reports errors via syslog (see syslog (3C)). Exception notification e-mail is sent to root and to the system contact e-mail address (configured via the icod_modify command (see icod_modify (1M)).
