Administering the ttymon port monitor

Listing which TTY ports are accessible

To identify all enabled ttymon port monitors (ports accessible to users), enter:

sacadm -l -t ttymon

NOTE: The command who -l lists all running port monitors, not accessible TTY ports. Use the command sacadm -l -t ttymon to find out which TTY ports are accessible.

In the following example output, port monitor ``ttymon1'' has the status ENABLED. This means that it is accepting service requests for any of its services that are enabled.

PMTAG   PMTYPE  FLGS  RCNT  STATUS    COMMAND
ttymon1 ttymon  -     0     ENABLED   /usr/lib/saf/ttymon   #
ttymon3 ttymon  d     0     DISABLED  /usr/lib/saf/ttymon   #

To identify which services are enabled, you would use the command pmadm -l -p ttymon1 to list all configured TTY services for the port monitor ``ttymon1''.

In this example output, enabled services are those that do not have an ``x'' in the ``FLGS'' column. The ports corresponding to these services (/dev/term/01 and /dev/term/03) are accessible to users.
