Process Rpcstat Service Health

Microsoft.AIX.5.3.Process.Rpcstat.Monitor (UnitMonitor)

AIX 5.3 Process Rpcstat Monitor

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The rpc.statd daemon is not running. Check the Diagnostic and Recovery results to see if further action is required.

The rpc.statd daemon implements the NSM RPC protocol, which provides notifications of reboots. It is used by rpc.lockd to implement NFS lock recovery after system crashes and reboots.

Causes

A failure indicates that the rpc.statd daemon is not running.

Resolutions

Check the daemon on the system by running 'ps -ef | grep rpc.statd' or by viewing the diagnostic in the Operations Manager Console. If it is down, you can start the process using the command 'startsrc -s rpc.statd' or by clicking the recovery link in the Operations Manager Console.

For root cause analysis, check the system log file by using the command 'errpt', and view any related entries at the time of failure.
