Provided by: lfc-dli_1.10.0-2_amd64 bug

NAME

       lfc-dli - start the LFC Data Location Interface server

SYNOPSIS

       lfc-dli [ -l log_file ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  lfc-dli  command starts the LFC Data Location Interface server.  This command is usually executed at
       system startup time (/etc/rc.local).  This will create a pool of threads, look for requests and pass them
       to  the LFC.  When a request has been completed, the thread becomes idle until it is allocated to another
       request.

       All error messages and statistical information are kept in a log.

       The Data Location Interface server listen port number can be defined on client hosts and  on  the  server
       itself in either of the following ways:

              setting an environment variable DLI_PORT

                     setenv DLI_PORT 8085

              an entry in /etc/shift.conf like:

                     DLI  PORT 8085

       If  none  of  these  methods is used, the default port number is taken from the definition of DLI_PORT in
       dli_server.h.

       In the log each entry has a timestamp.  For each user request there is  one  message  giving  information
       about  the  requestor (hostname) and one message DLI98 giving the request itself.  The completion code of
       the request is also logged.

OPTIONS

       -l log_file
              Specifies a different path for the LFC Data Location Interface server log file.  The special value
              syslog will send the log messages to the system logger syslogd.
