Is samadapter running in my TSAMP v4.1 environment ?

Question & Answer

Question

There is no longer a samadapter resource in my automation policy in Tivoli System Automation for Multiplatform (TSAMP) Version 4.1.

How can I find out if samadapter is running?

Answer

With TSAMP v4.1, the samadapter no longer needs to be part of the automation policy ... there's no IBM.ServiceIP resource required anymore.
Now the samadapter has its own event publisher to allow to communicate with the Master IBM.RecoveryRM process.
In addition, the samadapter is now always running on the same node as the Master IBM.RecoveryRM process.

The command "samadapter status" can still be used to returns status. This command checks status of Publisher and the samadapter process on the MasterNode

samadapter would be running if 'lssamctrl' shows :

EnablePublisher = EEZ

It would not be running if 'lssamctrl' shows :

EnablePublisher = Disabled

If samadapter is running, then 'ps -ef' command shows a running process named "SAMAdapter"
