RSTATD(8)                 BSD System Manager's Manual                RSTATD(8)

NAME
     rstatd - system statistics daemon

SYNOPSIS
     rstatd

DESCRIPTION
     The rstatd program provides an RPC interface to kernel statistics.  The
     server reply includes CPU, virtual memory, network and disk statistics.

     The rstatd process is normally started at boot time from /etc/rc.local.

SEE ALSO
     rc(8),  rstat(1),  rpc(5),  portmap(8)

AUTHORS
     Rstatd is derived from the Sun Microsystems public RPC distribution.

BUGS
     When running, the daemon grabs statistics from the kernel once per sec-
     ond.  The overhead is not insubstantial.
