Re: 19990622: LDM questions

Tom,

You need to stop the ldm after you make any changes to the ldmd.conf file,
for pqact.conf it needs to have a kill sent to it. ie kill -HUP
<syslog.pid>  Don't worry if you don't grasp everything all at once, read
the tutorial and then play with the ldmadmin command. To see all the
options, do:

% ldmadmin -u

If you get into trouble, I still have the login.
