 NAME
      ovstatus - report status of HP OpenView Platforms daemon processes

 SYNOPSIS
      ovstatus [-d] [object_manager_names...]

 DESCRIPTION
      ovstatus reports the current status of the object managers that run as
      daemon processes as part of the HP OpenView Platforms. ovstatus works
      by sending a status request to the process management daemon, ovspmd.
      If called with one or more object_manager_name arguments, it reports
      status for ovspmditself. If ovspmd was started with its -V option,
      this status report will ovspmd knows about the object manager.

      Unlike ovstart, ovstatus will not start ovspmd if it is not already
      running.

      The object managers are configured by ovaddobj from information in
      Local Registration Files (see LRF(4)). An object manager is named by
      the first field in the LRF describing it.

    Parameters
      ovstatus recognizes the option described below. The first argument
      that is not an option, and any succeeding arguments, are interpreted
      as names of object managers for which to report status, and passed to
      ovspmd in the status request.

      -d        In -d (debug) mode, ovstatus reports the important stages in
                its processing, including contacting and sending the status
                request to ovspmd, and ovspmd closing the communication
                channel.

 DIAGNOSTICS
      ovstatus reports certain command line errors (in particular, too many
      arguments) and system errors. The messages are prefixed with "
      ovstatus:", and are intended to be self-explanatory.  ovstatus also
      outputs error messages received from ovspmd. These messages are
      prefixed with " ovspmd:". ovstatus ignores unrecognized options.
