Command Line Syntax

The default user name and password for the Multi-Port Monitor appliance provide superuser access. You can perform the following operations at the Linux command-line interface using the “sudo” prefix that identifies a superuser command.

sudo /sbin/service nqmaintd status

Verifies the status of the maintenance daemon (nqmaintd).

sudo /sbin/service nqmaintd restart

Restarts the maintenance daemon. Use only if the status message indicates that the process is running.

sudo /sbin/service nqmaintd start

Starts the maintenance daemon. Use only if the status message indicates that the process is stopped.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/stopprocs.sh

Stops all daemons (processes).

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/startprocs.sh

Starts all daemons (processes).

sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now

Stops the appliance immediately. Stop the Multi-Port Monitor database before you stop the appliance.

sudo reboot

Stops and restarts the appliance immediately. Stop the Multi-Port Monitor database before you stop the appliance.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/doVerticaCmd.sh --shutdown

Stops the Vertica metrics database. You can also stop the database from the web interface.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/doVerticaCmd.sh --start

Starts the Vertica metrics database.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/doVerticaCmd.sh --status

Verifies the status of the Vertica metrics database. You can also verify the status from the web interface.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/tui/tui-setup.php

Invokes the Network Settings Utility on the appliance.

sudo /opt/NetQoS/scripts/syncNapatechClock --force

Immediately synchronizes the clock on the Multi-Port Monitor capture card with the system clock. This command temporarily stops the nqcapd and nqmetricd processes, which disrupts monitoring. Both processes are restarted after the clocks are synchronized.
