PRM startup

[Roberto Volsa]

We are not using PRM (it is only only installed) but prm3d is up and running (consuming 214 Mb of memory).
The file /etc/rc.config.d/prm has all variables (PRM_CONFIG, ENABLE, CAPPING and SNMPAGT) setted to 0 except PRM_RMTCONF setted to 1.
If PRM is settet to stay disabled, why prm3d is running?
Can i stop the serice (using rc script) without any inconvenience?

Thanks a lot

Hi Roberto,

You first need to run

/sbin/init.d/prm stop

Then edit /etc/rc.config.d/prm & set that PRM_RMTCONF=0 & it won't start anything at all.

HTH,
Jeff

if the statup file /etc/rc.config.d/prm file has 0 for all the options then PRm is disabled.

It could have been like

1.PRM was running and the file was changed to zero from one but the existing processes were not stopped
so you can do a

#/sbin/init.d/prm stop

2.Someone could have just executed the command from /usr/bin/prm3d or /opt/prm/bin/prm3d.

if the point 1 does not work just kill the process by

#kill

Thanks
