NAME
     configmon - IRIX system configuration utility

SYNOPSIS
     configmon [-g] [-u] [-i] [-h] [-s]

DESCRIPTION
     The configmon utility is responsible for tracking changes in system
     hardware and software configuration. It performs its duties automatically
     during system start-up. configmon gathers information about hardware and
     software components installed in the system and compares the results to
     configuration data stored in the Embedded Support Partner (ESP) database.
     If it finds that any hardware or software components have been installed
     or deinstalled, it updates the database and logs information about the
     configuration change.

     There are circumstances, where it may be desirable to run the

     configmon utility interactively. Following is a brief description of the
     the command line options that might be used. Note that all output from
     the configmon utility will be sent to the standard output.

     -g           Causes all configmon tables to be created regardless of
                  system type.  Only used when configuring a system as a
                  System Group Manager (SGM).

     -u           Causes configmon to gather system configuration information
                  from the running system and compare it to the information
                  that is currently contained in the ESP database. If
                  differences are found, the database will be updated
                  accordingly.

     -i           Displays current system information (system name, IP
                  address, etc.) on stdout.

     -h           Displays current system hardware configuration information
                  on stdout.

     -s           Displays current system software configuration information
                  on stdout.

NOTES
     The configmon utility will track system software configuration changes
     for all systems running IRIX 6.5.5 or later. It will track system
     hardware configuration changes only for Challenge, Onyx, O2, Octane,
     Origin200, Origin2000, and Onyx2 systems.
