KernelEventAgent(8) BSD System Manager's Manual KernelEventAgent(8)
NAME
KernelEventAgent -- utility to provide user interface on behalf of the
kernel
SYNOPSIS
KernelEventAgent [-dv] [-f fsname] [-t timeout]
DESCRIPTION
The KernelEventAgent utility is responsible for displaying disk full and
unresponsive file server messages. It is not intended to be run
directly, but rather started by the system. The few options it has are
intended as debugging aids. Typically, allowing the system to start
KernelEventAgent by itself, without any additional options, is the ideal
configuration.
The options are as follows:
-d Debug mode. Do not fork into a detached process, and write mes-
sages to stderr as well as the system log.
-v Verbose mode. System messages of LOG_INFO level and LOG_DEBUG
level are raised to the LOG_NOTICE level.
-f fsname
The file system identified by fsname is also passed the timeout
value via the VFS_CTL_TIMEO sysctl.
-t timeout
The timeout value, specified in seconds, is the amount of time to
wait before the user is notified again after dismissing notice of
an unresponsive network mount point.
