The VxVM configuration daemon (vxconfigd) maintains VxVM disk and disk group configurations. The vxconfigd communicates configuration changes to the kernel and modifies configuration information stored on disk.
Startup scripts usually invoke vxconfigd at system boot time. The vxconfigd daemon must be running for VxVM to operate properly.
The following procedures describe how to check that vxconfigd is started, whether it is enabled or disabled, how to start it manually, or how to enable it as required.
To determine whether vxconfigd is enabled, use the following command:
The following message indicates that the vxconfigd daemon is running and enabled:
This message indicates that vxconfigd is not running:
To start the vxconfigd daemon, enter the following command:
This message indicates that vxconfigd is running, but not enabled:
To enable the volume daemon, enter the following command:
Once started, vxconfigd automatically becomes a background process.
By default, vxconfigd writes error messages to the console. However, you can configure it to write errors to a log file. For more information, see the vxconfigd(1M) and vxdctl(1M) manual pages.
