cmgetconf entries in syslog

[Dave Forber]

Looking for reassurance or pointers here please. In the syslog file on members of the cluster, cmgetconf is adding entries several times every second, every minute etc. On the primary node we have:

Mar 11 08:53:03 gcwsdb01 CM-CMD 10703]: /usr/sbin/cmgetconf -p dbinst1
Mar 11 08:53:03 gcwsdb01 CM-CMD[10706]: /usr/sbin/cmgetconf -p nfs_server

dbinst1 is the Oracle instance, and obviously nfs_server is our method of sharing the shared disks.

Should this be occuring so frequently?

Thanks.

here is the clue: CM-CMD 10703]:
^^^^^^

Someone or some script is running a regular command to look for info on these two packages.
