cfgmgr(8)cfgmgr(8)NAMEcfgmgr - Configuration management server
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/cfgmgr
DESCRIPTION
The cfgmgr configuration management server works with the kernel load
server (kloadsrv) daemon to manage the subsystems that are dynamically
configurable, loadable, or both. The cfgmgr server starts up automati‐
cally when a client (such as the sysconfig command) makes a configura‐
tion management request. Examples of configuration management
requests are requests to configure, reconfigure, query, or unconfigure
a subsystem.
The cfgmgr server allows query operations from any superuser (root
login), local or remote. The superuser on the local system is also
allowed to configure, reconfigure, or unconfigure local kernel subsys‐
tems. Remote access to the kernel subsystem configuration is allowed
through the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file. System administrators working on
hosts listed in that file can also configure, reconfigure, or unconfig‐
ure local kernel subsystems. If the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file does not
exist or is empty, no remote users are allowed to configure, reconfig‐
ure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems.
If you use the sysconfig -v command, the cfgmgr server displays debug‐
ging information to the /dev/console screen. See the sysconfig(8) ref‐
erence page for more information about the -v option.
