RMS Daemons
4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the role of the RMS daemons. There are daemons that run on the
rmshost node providing services for the system as a whole:
msqld Manages the database (see Section 4.2).
mmanager Monitors the health of the machine as a whole (see Section 4.3).
pmanager Controls the use of resources (see Section 4.4).
swmgr Monitors the health of the Compaq AlphaServer SC Interconnect (see
Section 4.5).
tlogmgr Carries out transactions on behalf of RMS servers (see Section 4.6).
eventmgr Provides a system-wide event-handling service (see Section 4.7).
There are daemons that run on each node, providing support for RMS functionality on
that node:
rmsmhd Acts as the Process Manager, starting all of the other RMS daemons
(see Section 4.8).
rmsd Carries out instructions from pmanager to run users’ programs (see
Section 4.9).
