The Watchdog MO is a media server process that:
Creates other Communication Manager processes
Monitors their sanity
Can recover their failures
These applications come up and start heartbeats to the Watchdog. For more information about 
Watchdog, see 
on page 100 that describes the _WD 
MO’s alarms and their troubleshooting procedures.
Watchdog also starts up a script to monitor Linux services and daemons, and threads to 
communicate with a hardware-sanity device. For alarm-related information about these 
services, daemons, and threads, see
