NAME

       multipathc - Interactive client for multipathd

SYNOPSIS

       multipathc [ timeout ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  multipathc  tool  provides an interactive shell for communicating with the multipathd
       daemon.  The command multipathd -k invokes multipathc.

       All commands documented in multipathd(8) are supported.  The  available  commands  can  be
       viewed  by entering 'help'.  Use quit, exit, or CTRL-D to exit the shell.  Keywords can be
       abbreviated with the first letters (for example, shu for shutdown), if the abbreviation is
       unique.   Some  commands support pretty-printing using printf-style format specifiers. The
       supported format specifiers can be listed with the command show wildcards.   Depending  on
       build  options, the interactive shell may provide command completion and history expansion
       features.

       The optional parameter timeout specifies the timeout to wait for a reply from  multipathd,
       in milliseconds. The default is 4000 ms.
