NAME

ocd - cluster coordination server for Archiveopteryx.

SYNOPSIS

/usr/local/archiveopteryx/sbin/ocd [-f] [-c configfile]

DESCRIPTION

ocd is responsible for message passing, cache updates and various other houskeeping tasks for Archiveopteryx. It must always be running while Archiveopteryx runs, but should never be visible to the user.

OPTIONS

-c filename

Read configuration variables from filename instead of from /usr/local/archiveopteryx/archiveopteryx.conf.

-f

Fork into background during startup.

CONFIGURATION

ocd is configured using archiveopteryx.conf(5).

The only configuration variables specific to this server are ocd-address, ocd-port, ocadmin-address, and ocadmin-port.

DEPENDENCIES

ocd needs to connect to logd at startup.

DIAGNOSTICS

In case of error, ocd exits with exit code 1, an error message on stderr and (usually more detailed) information in the log file.

BUGS

At some future date, ocd will offer a management console. It doesn't yet, though.
