V-Series appliance system watchdog
Help | V-Series Appliance | v8.2.x
V-Series appliances implement a system watchdog daemon to monitor critical system processes and conditions. Should one of the monitored processes or conditions fail or fault, the watchdog service performs a reset or restart.
Monitored processes and states include:
*
Appliance kernel: Is the kernel active?
*
Domain Agent: Is the Domain Agent running?
This is an essential process that is responsible for communicating between the user interface and appliance back-end processes.
*
Journal Commit I/O: Detect a "journal commit I/O" error.
*
File table: Detect a file table overflow condition.
Watchdog actions are recorded in the system log file, which can be viewed on the Administration > Logs page.
