       NAME
             os_agent - Compaq Insight Manager (CIM) Operating System Agent

       SYNOPSIS
             os_agent [-p time] [-i] [-s OK | NOTOK] [-t OK | NOTOK]

       DESCRIPTION
             os_agent is the Compaq Insight Manager (CIM) host information
             data collection agent.  This agent is responsible for
             collecting operating system resource utilization information
             (cpu, file system, etc.)  for the CIM MIB registered by
             cpqsmuxd(1M).  By default, the agent is started by cpqsmuxd
             with the arguments specified in the
             /usr/bin/compaq/smux/config file.

             os_agent supports the following options:

                   -p time        specifies the time, in seconds, between
                                  updates of the MIB variables.  If not
                                  specified, time defaults to 30 seconds.

                   -i             tells the agent to ignore stop indication
                                  from the cpqsmuxd process.  If -i is not
                                  specified, when a stop indication is
                                  received from cpqsmuxd, os_agent
                                  terminates.

                   -t OK | NOTOK  enables or disables the ability to send
                                  SNMP traps.  If OK is specified, os_agent
                                  will issue SNMP traps.

                   -s OK | NOTOK  enables or disables set operations on
                                  this agent's MIB variables.  A user at a
                                  management station may attempt to set MIB
                                  variables managed by this agent.  If OK
                                  is specified, os_agent will allow set
                                  operations.
