Name

       ganeti-luxid - Ganeti query daemon

Synopsis

       ganeti-luxid [-f] [-d]

DESCRIPTION

       ganeti-luxid  is  a daemon used to answer queries related to the configuration and the current live state
       of a Ganeti cluster.

       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  (/var/run/ganeti/socket/ganeti-query)  on  which  it
       exports a Luxi endpoint, serving query operations only.  Commands and tools use this socket if the build-
       time option for split queries has been enabled.

       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.

   ROLE
       The role of the query daemon is to answer queries about the (live) cluster state  without  going  through
       the  master  daemon.   Only  queries  which don't require locks can be handles by the query 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       might lead to slightly outdated results in some cases.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.

   COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
       See gnt-master(8).
