Stops the nis_cachemgr daemon and comments the entry in the /etc/rc.nfs file.
rm_niscachemgr [ -I | -B | -N]
Note: The mk_nisd, mk_cachemgr, mk_nispasswdd, rm_nisd, rm_cachemgr, and rm_nispasswdd commands do two things:
- Alter the entries of daemon startup calls in /etc/rc.nfs.
- Alter the default behavior of the daemon src entities.
For example, if the rpc.nisd daemon is supposed to start with the -Y flag, this will not be explicitly set in the /etc/rc.nfs entry for starting the rpc.nisd daemon. Instead, a chssys is executed to place the default options which are added (if any) to the daemons during startup. To verify that these options exist, use the lssrc -S -s subsystem command to show the default options.
Note: An important effect of running this command is that the domain name of the NIS+ environment will be reset to NULL. It is assumed that if the administrator turns off the nis_cachemgr, the NIS+ configuration is no longer active. By resetting the domain name, unnecessary lookups are prevented. If the administrator does not desire this effect, they should run chypdom after rm_niscachemgr has been run.
rm_niscachemgr -IThis command will not stop the currently executing daemon.
