NAME

       bos_getrestart - Displays the automatic restart times for server processes

SYNOPSIS

       bos getrestart -server <machine name> [-cell <cell name>]
           [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]

       bos getr -s <machine name> [-c <cell name>] [-n]
           [-l] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The bos getrestart command displays two restart times from the /etc/openafs/BosConfig file
       on the server machine named by the -server argument:

       •   The general restart time at which the BOS Server process automatically restarts itself
           and all processes marked with status "Run" in the BosConfig file. The default is
           Sunday at 4:00 a.m.

       •   The binary restart time at which the BOS Server automatically restarts any process for
           which the time stamp on the binary file in the /usr/lib/openafs directory is later
           than the last restart time for the process. The default is 5:00 a.m. Use the bos
           getdate command to list a binary file's timestamp, and the -long flag to the bos
           status command to display a process's most recent restart time.

       Use the bos setrestart command to set the restart times.

OPTIONS

       -server <machine name>
           Indicates the server machine for which to display the restart times. Identify the
           machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated
           unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag
           with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile
           file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual
           authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more
           details, see bos(8).

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

OUTPUT

       The output consists of two lines:

          Server <machine_name> restarts at <time>
          Server <machine_name> restarts for new binaries at <time>

       Possible values for <time> include:

       •   "never", indicating that the BOS Server never performs that type of restart.

       •   "now", indicating that the BOS Server performs that type of restart only each time it
           restarts.

       •   A specified day and time, indicating that the BOS Server performs that type of restart
           once per week. Example: "sun 4:00 am".

       •   A specified time, indicating that the BOS Server performs that type of restart once
           per day. Examples: "11:00 pm", "3:00 am".

EXAMPLES

       The following example displays the restart times for the machine "db2.abc.com":

          % bos getrestart db2.abc.com
          Server db2.abc.com restarts at sun 4:00 am
          Server db2.abc.com restarts for new binaries at 2:15 am

       In the following example, the issuer abbreviates the machine name "fs1.abc.com" to "fs1",
       relying on the cell's name server to resolve the name. The output echoes the abbreviated
       form.

          % bos getrestart fs1
          Server fs1 restarts at sat 5:00 am
          Server fs1 restarts for new binaries at 11:30 pm
