Hello Michael / List,

When 'configure' finishes; it displays:

***************************************************************
* Note! Kernel support for imon was not detected.  fam should *
* still work, but it will have to poll monitored filesystems  *
* instead of receiving file operation events from the kernel. *
*                                                             *
* If you think your kernel has imon, see what this script is  *
* looking for (on Linux, probably /usr/include/linux/imon.h), *
* fix the problem (perhaps by adding a link), and run this    *
* again.  (You probably need to remove config.cahche first.)  *
*                                                             *
* See http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/ for more information.  *
*                                                             *

Re: [SISE FAM] FAM on Solaris2.8

I also read the message above on the FAM Mailing List, and from
that I draw the conclusion that "polling" is what FAM can provide
me with on my system (at least for now). Is that correct?

But, what about if my system NFS-mounted a file system from
another host, running FAM+Imon, would FAM "notify" my local
FAM-based application on alterations made to those remote files?


Or does the 'configure' message:

"Using imon support moduel IMonNone"

imply "polling" mode only?


Greatful for some clarification on this.

Best regards!
