SYNOPSIS:cf-monitord [options]
DESCRIPTION:
The monitoring agent is a machine-learning, sampling daemon which
learns the normal state of the current host and classifies new observa‐
tions in terms of the patterns formed by previous ones. The data are
made available to and read by cf-agent for classification of responses
to anomalous states. cfengine is a self-healing configuration and
change management based system. You can think of.B cfengine as a very
high level language, much higher level than Perl or shell. Asingle
statement is called a promise, and compliance can result in many hun‐
dreds of filesbeing created, or the permissions of many hundreds
offiles being set. The idea of .B cfengine is to create a one or more
sets of configuration files which willclassify and describe the setup
of every host in a network.
