3.1 - Daemon Control Actions

A daemon control record answers three questions for the dscheck daemon:

  • Whose checks? (specialist login)

  • For which command? (utility program name, or ‘ALL’)

  • On which host, at what concurrency, at what priority? (hostname, ProcessLimit, Priority)

Daemon controls are read by the daemon on every cycle, so changes take effect without restarting the daemon. A specialist with no daemon control records will have no checks started automatically.

Available actions:

Set Daemon Control

create or modify daemon control records.

Get Daemon Control

retrieve existing daemon control records.

Delete Daemon Control

remove daemon control records by index.
