       evmreload - Reload Event Manager configuration files

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       /usr/sbin/evmreload [-d] [-a] [-c] [-l] [-n]

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Reconfigures  the  EVM  channel manager.  Reconfigures the
       EVM daemon.  Reconfigures the EVM logger.   Syntax  checks
       the  event template files and reports errors, but does not
       make any changes effective.  If a  daemon  reconfiguration
       is  requested,  the  reconfiguration  request will be sent
       even if there are errors in any template file.  If  errors
       exist,  there  is  no guarantee that the new configuration
       will be accepted.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The evmreload command posts control events  that  instruct
       EVM  resident  components  to  reload  their configuration
       files. It should be run to cause EVM to  begin  using  the
       new  configuration  any time a configuration file has been
       changed.

       If no options are specified, the daemon, the channel  manager,
 and the logger all reload their configurations.

       The  daemon should be reconfigured any time its configuration
 file or event template database has changed. The logger
  should  be reconfigured anytime its configuration has
       changed. The channel manager should be  reconfigured  anytime
 its configuration has changed.

       Resident  EVM  components  also reload their configuration
       files on receipt of a SIGHUP signal.

       If an activity monitor is specified in the EVM daemon configuration
 file, all counts and timers associated with the
       monitor are reset.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The evmreload command uses the evminfo -verify command  to
       check  for  errors in configuration files before sending a
       reload request to EVM.  If  errors  are  found,  they  are
       reported to stderr and no reconfiguration request is sent.
       This check does not find all possible errors, however,  so
       you  should  take care to check for errors reported by the
       EVM components themselves. To do this, run  the  following
       command:  evmget  -A  -f  '[name  *.evm]  & [age < 5m]' -t
       '@timestamp @@'

RESTRICTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       You must be user root to run this command.

EXAMPLES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The following command will cause the EVM daemon to  reconfigure
  itself:  /usr/sbin/evmreload -d The following command
 will cause the  EVM  logger  to  reconfigure  itself:
       /usr/sbin/evmreload  -l  The  following command will cause
       the   EVM   channel   manager   to   reconfigure   itself:
       /usr/sbin/evmreload -c To syntax check the daemon configuration
 file without any  reconfiguration  actually  occurring,
  enter the following command: /usr/sbin/evmreload -n
       To reconfigure both the EVM daemon  and  the  EVM  logger,
       enter  the following command: /usr/sbin/evmreload -d -l To
       reconfigure the EVM daemon, the EVM logger,  and  the  EVM
       channel    manager,    enter    the   following   command:
       /usr/sbin/evmreload The following command will reconfigure
       the  EVM  daemon, the EVM logger, and the EVM channel manager
 even if  there  are  errors  in  the  template  file.
       /usr/sbin/evmreload -a
