Name

stopltid — stop the Media Manager device daemon

SYNOPSIS

stopltid

The directory path to this command is /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/

DESCRIPTION

This command operates only on UNIX systems.

The stopltid command stops ltid, avrd, and the robotic daemons.

The ltid command starts the Media Manager device daemon (ltid) and Automatic Volume Recognition daemon (avrd). These daemons manage Media Manager devices. With both daemons started, an operator can initiate the operator display, observe the drive status, and control the assignment of requests to standalone drives. ltid can be placed in a system initialization script.

The Media Manager volume daemon, vmd, also starts with the ltid command. ltid also starts the appropriate robotic daemons, if robotic devices were defined in Media Manager.

You must have administrator privileges to run this command.

ERRORS

Error messages are logged by using syslogd.
