DESCRIPTION
sacadm is the administrative command for the upper level of the
Service Access Facility hierarchy, that is, for port monitor
administration. sacadm performs the following functions:
- adds or removes a port monitor
- starts or stops a port monitor
- enables or disables a port monitor
- installs or replaces a per-system configuration script
- installs or replaces a per-port monitor configuration script
- prints requested port monitor information
Requests about the status of port monitors (-l and -L) and requests
to print per-port monitor and per-system configuration scripts (-g
and -G without the -z option) may be executed by any user on the
system. Other sacadm commands may be executed only by a privileged
user.
The options have the following meanings:
-a Add a port monitor. When adding a port monitor, sacadm creates
the supporting directory structure in /etc/saf and /varsaf and
adds an entry for the new port monitor to /etc/saf/_sactab. The
file _sactab already exists on the delivered system. Initially,
it is empty except for a single line, which contains the version
number of the Service Access Controller.
Unless the command line that adds the new port monitor includes
a -f option with the argument x, the new port monitor will be
started. Because of the complexity of the options and arguments
that follow the -a option, it may be convenient to use a command
script or the menu system to add port monitors. If you use the
menu system, enter sysadm ports and then choose the
port_monitors option.
-c cmd
Execute the command string cmd to start a port monitor. The -c
option may be used only with a -a. A -a option requires a -c.

-d Disable the port monitor pmtag.
-e Enable the port monitor pmtag.
-f dx
The -f option specifies one or both of the following two flags
which are then included in the flags field of the _sactab entry
for the new port monitor. If the -f option is not included on
the command line, no flags are set and the default conditions
prevail. By default, a port monitor is started. A -f option
with no following argument is illegal.
d Do not enable the new port monitor.
x Do not start the new port monitor.
-g The -g option is used to request output or to install or replace
the per-port monitor configuration script
/etc/saf/pmtag/_config. -g requires a -p option. The -g option
with only a -p option prints the per-port monitor configuration
script for port monitor pmtag. The -g option with a -p option
and a -z option installs the file script as the per-port monitor
configuration script for port monitor pmtag. Other combinations
of options with -g are invalid.
-G The -G option is used to request output or to install or replace
the per-system configuration script /etc/saf/_sysconfig. The -G
option by itself prints the per-system configuration script.
The -G option in combination with a -z option installs the file
script as the per-system configuration script. Other
combinations of options with a -G option are invalid.
-k Stop port monitor pmtag.
-l The -l option is used to request port monitor information. The
-l by itself lists all port monitors on the system. The -l
option in combination with the -p option lists only the port
monitor specified by pmtag. A -l in combination with the -t
option lists all port monitors of type type. Any other
combination of options with the -l option is invalid.
-L The -L option is identical to the -l option except that the
output appears in a condensed format.
-n count
Set the restart count to count. If a restart count is not
specified, count is set to 0. A count of 0 indicates that the
port monitor is not to be restarted if it fails.
-p pmtag
Specifies the tag associated with a port monitor.
-r Remove port monitor pmtag. sacadm removes the port monitor
entry from /etc/saf/_sactab. If the removed port monitor is not
running, then no further action is taken. If the removed port
monitor is running, the Service Access Controller (SAC) sends it

SIGTERM to indicate that it should shut down. Note that the
port monitor's directory structure remains intact.
-s Start a port monitor. The SAC starts the port monitor pmtag.
-t type
Specifies the port monitor type.
-v ver
Specifies the version number of the port monitor. This version
number may be given as
-v `pmspec -V`
where pmspec is the special administrative command for port
monitor pmtag. This special command is ttyadm for ttymon and
nlsadmin for listen. The version stamp of the port monitor is
known by the command and is returned when pmspec is invoked with
a -V option.
-x The -x option by itself tells the SAC to read its database file
(_sactab). The -x option with the -p option tells port monitor
pmtag to read its administrative file.
-y comment
Include comment in the _sactab entry for port monitor pmtag.
-z script
Used with the -g and -G options to specify the name of a file
that contains a configuration script. With the -g option,
script is a per-port monitor configuration script; with -G it is
a per-system configuration script. Modifying a configuration
script is a three-step procedure. First a copy of the existing
script is made (-g or -G). Then the copy is edited. Finally,
the copy is put in place over the existing script (-g or -G with
-z).
OUTPUT
If successful, sacadm will exit with a status of 0. If sacadm fails
for any reason, it will exit with a nonzero status. Options that
request information will write the information on the standard
output. In the condensed format (-L), port monitor information is
printed as a sequence of colon-separated fields; empty fields are
indicated by two successive colons. The standard format (-l) prints
a header identifying the columns, and port monitor information is
aligned under the appropriate headings. In this format, an empty
field is indicated by a hyphen. The comment character is #.
EXAMPLES
The following command line adds a port monitor. The port monitor tag
is npack; its type is listen; if necessary, it will restart three
times before failing; its administrative command is nlsadmin; and the
configuration script to be read is in the file script:
sacadm -a -p npack -t listen -c /usr/lib/saf/listen npack \
-v `nlsadmin -V` -n 3 -z script
