statd(1M)                         NFS R4.11                        statd(1M)


NAME
       statd - network status monitor

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/etc/rpc.statd

DESCRIPTION
       Statd is an intermediate version of the status monitor.  It interacts
       with lockd(1M) to provide the crash and recovery functions for the
       locking services on NFS.

       A server may have more than one network interface name. When
       configuring a client, use the server's primary name.  Otherwise the
       client will fail to recover its locks when the server reboots.  To
       determine the primary network interface name, execute hostname(1M) on
       the server.

FILES
       /etc/sm
       /etc/sm.bak
       /etc/state

SEE ALSO
       lockd(1M), statd(4).

BUGS
       The crash of a site is only detected upon its recovery.
