NAME

     emond -- Event Monitor Daemon


SYNOPSIS

     emond [-r path] [-c path]


DESCRIPTION

     emond accepts events from various services, runs them through a simple
     rules engine, and takes action. The actions can run commands; send email,
     or SMS messages.

     Options:

     -r path_to_rules
              Tells emond to look for rules files in the specified path. The
              path may refer to either a file or a directory. If the path
              refers to a directory, then all files with a .plist extension in
              that directory will be loaded.

     -c path_to_config
              Tells emond to look in specified path for its config file.


FILES

     /etc/emond.d/rules/                           Default directory where
                                                   emond looks for rules.
     /etc/emond.d/emond.plist                      the plist formatted config
