Process Fmd Service Health

Microsoft.Solaris.10.Process.Fmd.Monitor (UnitMonitor)

Solaris 10 Process Fmd Monitor

Knowledge Base article:

Configuration

This monitor is disabled by default, except on Solaris 10 computers that are Global Zones, where it is automatically enabled with an override.

Summary

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

The fault manager daemon receives information related to problems detected by the system software and initiates self-healing activities.

Causes

An unhealthy state indicates that the fault manager daemon is not running.

Resolutions

Check the service on the system by running 'ps -ef | grep fmd' or by viewing the diagnostic in the Operations Manager Console. If it is down, you can start the process using the command 'svcadm enable fmd' or by clicking the recovery link in the Operations Manager Console.

For root cause analysis, first check the system logfile (/var/adm/messages), and view any related entries at the time of failure. Also, examine logs for the fault manager daemon in /var/fm/fmd. You may also check the system for any process core files. Use '/usr/bin/pstack [corefile]' to print a stack trace which will assist in troubleshooting the cause of failure.
