NAME

       taskdctl - Taskserver control program

SYNOPSIS

       taskdctl [start|stop|restart|graceful|status]

DESCRIPTION

       The  taskdctl program allows you to start and stop Taskserver. The TASKDDATA environment variable is used
       to locate the root data structure, and query the configuration to obtain the location of the pid file.

COMMANDS

       Taskdctl supports several commands:

       taskdctl start
              Starts the server as a daemon, if it is not already running.  It is harmless to run  this  command
              if the server is already running.

       taskdctl stop
              Stops  the  server,  if  it  is  running.  It is harmless to run this command if the server is not
              running.

       taskdctl restart
              Stops the server, if it is running, then starts the server again.  This is  done  by  killing  the
              server  process.  This will interrupt any current sync sessions, probably causing an error.  It is
              harmless to run this command if the server is not running.

       taskdctl graceful
              Stops the server, if it is running, by waiting for the server to go idle, then restarts the server
              again.   This is done by sending SIGHUP signal to the server.  This will not interrupt any current
              sync sessions.  It is harmless to run this command if the server is not running.

       taskdctl status
              Shows the status of the Taskserver, whether it is running or not.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       Taskdctl requires that the TAKSDDATA environment variable be properly set. This is because the root  data
       structure is accessed.
