Name

       ganeti-luxid - Ganeti query daemon

Synopsis

       ganeti-luxid [-f] [-d] [--syslog] [--no-user-checks] [--no-voting --yes-do-it]

DESCRIPTION

       ganeti-luxid  is  a  daemon  used  to  answer queries related to the configuration and the
       current live state of a Ganeti cluster.  Additionally, it is the autorative daemon for the
       Ganeti job queue.  Jobs can be submitted via this daemon and it schedules and starts them.

       For  testing  purposes,  you  can give the -f option and the program won't detach from the
       running terminal.

       Debug-level message can be activated by giving the -d option.

       Logging to syslog, rather than its own log file, can be enabled by passing in the --syslog
       option.

       The       ganeti-luxid       daemon       listens       on       a       Unix       socket
       (@LOCALSTATEDIR@/run/ganeti/socket/ganeti-query) on  which  it  exports  a  Luxi  endpoint
       supporting the full set of commands.

       The  daemon  will  refuse  to  start if the user and group do not match the one defined at
       build time; this behaviour can be overridden by the --no-user-checks option.

       The daemon will refuse to start if it cannot verify that the  majority  of  cluster  nodes
       believes  that it is running on the master node.  To allow failover in a two-node cluster,
       this can be  overridden  by  the  --no-voting  option.   As  it  this  is  dangerous,  the
       --yes-do-it option has to be given as well.

       Only queries which don't require locks can be handled by the luxi daemon, which might lead
       to slightly outdated results in some cases.

       The config is reloaded from disk automatically when it changes, with a rate limit of  once
       per second.
