rtas_errd is a daemon that runs on pSeries platform and
handles platform generated events/errors. It gets platform generated events
via procfs. It parses events and takes appropriate actions like extracting
platform dumps, calling drmgr for hotplug events, etc. It also
provides automated responses for urgent events such as environmental
conditions, predictive failures, etc. Additionally it converts the events to
human readable format and logs to servicelog database so that system
administrator can view these events and take appropriate actions.
- -c,
--config=CONFIG_FILE
- Path to config file (default:
/etc/ppc64-diag/ppc64-diag.config).
- -d, --debug
- Don't daemonize, used for debugging.
- -f,
--file=TEST_FILE
- The test file contains the sample PEL event that can to be proccessed by
rtas_errd daemon.
- -e,
--epowfile=EPOW_FILE
- Path to EPOW status file (default: /var/log/epow_status). By
default we use this path to store EPOW status, which is used by
"rc.powerfail" script to check the EPOW status.
- -h, --help
- Help (this message).
- -l,
--logfile=FILE
- Path to rtas_errd debug log file (default: /var/log/rtas_errd.log).
By default we log event to this file.
- -m,
--msgsfile=MSG_FILE
- Path to syslog. Used to read any PEL events that exists in syslog (It
happens when we enable RTAS debug flag in kernel).
- -p,
--platformfile=PLATFORM_FILE
- Path to platform log (default: /var/log/platform). By default we
log hex output with some description to this file.
- -s,
--scenario=SCENARIO_FILE
- Scenario file contains list of files that contains PEL logs.
- -R, --nodrmgr
- No drmgr. Do not call drmgr command to perform hotplug
operations.
