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)).
