Here is a brief abstract file describing them. You already have the remote mag tape stuff. I would suggest setting these up as : [VMS93A.MARSHALL.ARGUS] [VMS93A.MARSHALL.AUDIT_LISTEN] [VMS93A.MARSHALL.COMPARE_NCP] [VMS93A.MARSHALL.RMT] [VMS93A.MARSHALL.SANITY_CHECK] Thanks! Bob Marshall marshall@nebula.ssd.lmsc.lockheed.com ----------------------------- ABSTRACT ---------------------------------- ARGUS : YAITK (yet-another-idle-terminal-killer), allows process exemptions based on username, image name, terminal name, and time-of-day. Also detects certain "runaway" processes. Easily configurable. AUDIT_LISTEN : Implements the SET AUDIT/LISTEN feature introduced at VMS 5.2 to intercept audit event records for immediate processing. Fully-functional, but mostly just a demonstration of the technique, with easy hooks for site-specific mods. COMPARE_NCP : Compares the nodenames/addresses in a local NCP data with those in a remote DECNET database and produces a discrepancy report. RMT : Front-end and back-end user interface for Wolfgang Moeller's remote mag tape driver (ZTDRIVER). Multi-unit implementation. DECNET objects allow remote tape drive to be used from local system without having to log into remote system. SANITY_CHECK : Background daemon that monitors a system, looking for missing pre-specified processes, missing pre-specified batch jobs, and hosed pre-specified print queues. Sends MAIL to an appropriate username so that the condition can be resolved via manual intervention . Bob Marshall marshall@nebula.ssd.lmsc.lockheed.com
