NAME

       targetctl - Save and restore configuration of kernel target

DESCRIPTION

       targetctl  is  a  low-level script to save and restore the configuration of the LIO kernel
       target, to and from a file in json format. It is not normally meant to  be  used  by  end-
       users  directly,  but  by system init frameworks, or advanced end-users who are generating
       the configuration file themselves and need a way to load the configuration without relying
       on the targetcli configuration shell.

USAGE

       targetctl  must  be invoked as root. Exit status will be 0 if successful, or nonzero if an
       error was encountered.

       targetctl save [config-file]

       Saves the current configuration of the kernel target to a file in json format.  Since  the
       file  may  contain  cleartext  passwords, the file's permissions will be set to only allow
       root access. If config-file is not supplied, targetctl will use the default file location,
       /etc/rtslib-fb-target/saveconfig.json.

       targetctl restore [config-file]

       Removes any existing configuration and replaces it with the configuration described in the
       file. See saveconfig.json(5) for more details. If parts of the configuration could not  be
       restored, those parts will be noted in the error output, and the rest of the configuration
       will still be applied.

       targetctl clear

       Removes any existing configuration from the running kernel target.

       targetctl --help

       Displays usage information.
