He,

# man psmctd

psmctd is launched at boot by the diagmond(1m) daemon. In addition, psmctd can be shutdown and restarted by using the Support Tools Manager, stm(1m). Care should be taken, however, when shutting down this daemon is it will cause the psmmon(1m) to return errors for future requests for state information, which may cause package failure
if ServiceGuard is currently monitoring a resource recognized by psmctd thru the psmmon(1m) monitor.

rgs,

Just use 'kill -9', and it will get restarted automatically.

# ps -ef| grep psmctd
root 1629 1440 0 Mar 8 ? 0:45 psmctd
root 15785 10339 0 00:40:49 pts/tc 0:00 grep psmctd
# kill -9 psmctd
sh: psmctd: Specify a process identifier or a %job number.
# kill -9 1629
# ps -ef| grep psmctd
# ps -ef| grep psmctd
root 15788 1440 0 00:41:05 ? 0:00 psmctd

i dont want to post blank o/p; kill was success; But the daemon did not restart ; I tried restaring diagdaemon/(sbin/init.d/diagnostic?

[Avinash20]

Sorry, I thought that you are unable to kill the daemon, hence gave the command

/sbin/init.d/ems stop
/sbin/init.d/diagnostic stop

# ps -ef| grep psmctd
# ps -ef| grep diag
# /sbin/init.d/diagnostic start
# /sbin/init.d/ems start
# ps -ef| grep diag

[skt_skt]

acadv02:root [/sbin/init.d] /sbin/init.d/ems start
This script does not start the EMS Services
acadv02:root [/sbin/init.d] /sbin/init.d/ems stop
This script does not stop the EMS Services


'start')
if [ ! -f /etc/opt/resmon/persistence/runlevel4_flag ]
then
xxxxxxx
else
print "This script does not start the EMS Services"
exitval=$NOP
fi


'stop')
print "This script does not stop the EMS Services"
exitval=$SUCCESS # No-op
;;

Output of

# set_fixed -l

You could restart the EMS via monconfig

psmctd is running now; even though it took time to come up
