Summary

This process monitor watches for the rpcbind process to be running. The rpcbind daemon converts RPC program numbers into universal addresses.

Causes

A failure indicates that the rpcbind service on the system is down

Resolutions

Check the service by running ps -ef | grep rpcbind, or by running /etc/init.d/rpcbind status, or by viewing the diagnostic in the Operations Manager Console. Start it by running the command "service rpcbind start" or by clicking the recovery link in the Operations Manager Console.

For root cause analysis, first check the system logfile (/var/log/messages), and view any related entries at the time of failure.
