fpsd(1M)		System Administration Commands		      fpsd(1M)

NAME
       fpsd - Fp-scrubber daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/fps/fpsd

DESCRIPTION
       fpsd  is a user-level daemon that periodically runs non-intrusive tests
       to validate proper functioning of FPU (Floating Point Unit) hardware in
       the system. A fault management action is initiated by means of fmd(1M),
       in case an error is detected by the test.

       fpsd is not supported on all Sun systems. On a system on	 which	it  is
       not supported, fpsd is automatically disabled.

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0

	   Successful completion.

       non-zero

	   An error occurred.

ATTRIBUTES
       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

NOTES
       The fpsd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5),
       under the service identifier:

	 svc:/system/fpsd:default

       You can use svccfg(1M) to change the default fpsd behavior:

	 Property Name		  Type	   Description
	 -------------		  ----	   -----------
	 config/exclude_cpus	  astring  comma delimited list of
					    CPU IDs to be excluded
					    from proactive testing.

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
       requesting  restart,  can  be performed using svcadm(1M). The service's
       status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.

       Disabling the service can increase  system's  vulnerability  to	silent
       data  corruption,  if a fault were to develop in an FPU within the sys‐
       tem.
