powermand8
Power control and monitoring daemon
Usage
powermand [-options]
Overview
powermand provides power management in a data center or compute cluster environment.
Options
-
-c, --conf filename -
Override the default location of the powerman configuration file /etc/powerman/powerman.conf.
-
-s, --stdio -
Talk to a client on stdin/stdout rather than listening for network connections. This is useful for testing new configurations, since the powerman client protocol is friendly to humans.
-
-Y, --short-circuit-delay -
Ignore all device script delay statements. This is useful for testing with simulated devices, where the delays slow down testing for no benefit.
-
-d, --debug mask -
Set mask for debugging output.
-
-h, --help -
Provide a synopsis of the command options.
-
-V, --version -
Display the powerman version number and exit.
