- _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r runs in the background and monitors available space on mounted
- filesystems and requests for message alerts from the _s_y_s_m_o_n(_1_M) facility.
- When it detects a condition requiring a graphical alert notifier, it uses
- _f_o_r_k(_2) to launch a new process to post the notifier. The
- /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_s_y_s_m_o_n/_e_r_r_h_o_o_k program posts the notifier.
-
- _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r is launched at login from the /_v_a_r/_X_1_1/_x_d_m/_X_s_e_s_s_i_o_n._d_t script.
- It is not intended to be run directly by end users. It establishes a
- connection to the X server, and exits automatically when that connection
- is closed (typically when the desktop user logs out).
-
- Default filesystem monitoring is to notify when any mounted, writable
- filesystem becomes more than 95% full. _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r will notify a second
- time when half the remaining space has been used and will notify a third
- time when all the space is used.
-
- The monitoring configuration can be changed with the "Set Space
- Monitoring" task, available in the system manager from the "Files and
- Data" section. The system manager can be launched from the toolchest
- (System > System Manager).

- The _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r program uses _f_a_m(_3_X) to watch three files and reacts when
- they change. The file $_H_O_M_E/._d_e_s_k_t_o_p_h_o_s_t/<_h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e>/_f_s_N_o_t_i_f_y_C_o_n_f_i_g
- defines the percentage full for each filesystem the user wants monitored.
- The "Set Space Monitoring" task records the user's preferences to this
- file. When this file changes, _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r updates its internal monitoring
- levels.
-
-
- The file /_v_a_r/_a_d_m/_s_y_s_m_o_n._m_s_g contains the latest system alert message
- generated by _s_y_s_m_o_n. When this file changes, _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r posts the file's
- contents in an error dialog.
-
-
- The file /_e_t_c/_m_t_a_b contains the list of filesystems to monitor. When
- this file changes, _i_m_d_m_o_n_i_t_o_r stop monitoring filesystems no longer in
- the list and begins monitoring new filesystems that were added to the
- list.
