.SH NAME
.PP
isochron-daemon - Start an isochron program waiting for management
commands
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\f[B]isochron\f[R] daemon [\f[I]OPTIONS\f[R]]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
This command starts a long-running process that listens for connections
from an isochron orchestrator.
The daemon can receive further instructions from the orchestrator.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\f[B]\f[CB]-h\f[B]\f[R], \f[B]\f[CB]--help\f[B]\f[R]
prints the short help message and exits
.TP
\f[B]\f[CB]-l\f[B]\f[R], \f[B]\f[CB]--log-file\f[B]\f[R] <\f[B]\f[CB]PATH\f[B]\f[R]>
after becoming a daemon, the program can redirect its standard output
and standard error to the text file specified here.
Optional, defaults to \f[C]/dev/null\f[R].
.TP
\f[B]\f[CB]-p\f[B]\f[R], \f[B]\f[CB]--pid-file\f[B]\f[R] <\f[B]\f[CB]PATH\f[B]\f[R]>
after spawning a daemon process, the main program overwrites the text
file provided here with a single line containing a decimal number
representing the process ID of the daemon.
Optional, defaults to no PID file being created.
.TP
\f[B]\f[CB]-P\f[B]\f[R], \f[B]\f[CB]--stats-port\f[B]\f[R] <\f[B]\f[CB]NUMBER\f[B]\f[R]>
specify the TCP port on which the daemon program is listening for
incoming connections.
This socket is used for management and statistics.
Optional, defaults to port 5000.
.TP
\f[B]\f[CB]-S\f[B]\f[R], \f[B]\f[CB]--stats-address\f[B]\f[R] <\f[B]\f[CB]NUMBER\f[B]\f[R]>
specify the IP address on which the daemon program is listening for
incoming connections.
This socket is used for management and statistics.
Supports binding to a given network device using the
\f[C]address%device\f[R] syntax (example:
\f[C]--stats-address ::%vrf0\f[R]).
Optional, defaults to ::, with a fallback to 0.0.0.0 if IPv6 is not
available.
.SH EXAMPLES

    --log-file isochron.log \[rs]
    --pid-file isochron.pid \[rs]
    --stats-port 5001
tail -F isochron.log &
kill $(pidof tail)
kill $(cat isochron.pid)
