The broadcaster collects controller events and saves them to files in
the /usr/dpt directory for use by Storage Manager. Events can also be
sent to an ASCII file, specified devices, or e-mailed as specified in
the Event Broadcasting window.
Installing the Broadcaster
When you install the controller driver, you automatically install the
the broadcaster in /usr/dpt. During broadcaster installation, you are
prompted to specify if the broadcaster is loaded automatically when
the system is started in multiuser mode. If you specify automatic
loading, events are gathered and recorded without user
intervention. This also copies a script file, s33dpt, to the /etc/rc2.d
directory. This script automatically loads the broadcaster as a
background process when the system goes into multiuser mode.
Note: Do not use the s33dpt script file for UnixWare 7
broadcaster operation.
Stopping/Restarting the Broadcaster
A script file (dptlog) is provided that enables you to stop and restart
the broadcaster from the UNIX prompt. Use the following
commands to stop or start the broadcaster:
dptlog stop
dptlog start
Viewing Events
Events can be viewed from the system console or a terminal by
using the Event Logs window in Storage Manager (see
page
3-35).
