The pmempool is a generic command which consists of subcommands for specific purposes. Some of subcommands are required to work \f[I]without\f[] any impact on processed pool, but some of them \f[I]may\f[] create a new or modify an existing one. .PP The \f[B]pmempool\f[] may be useful for troubleshooting by system administrators and for software developers who work on applications based on \f[B]PMDK\f[]. The latter may find these tools useful for testing and debugging purposes also. .SH OPTIONS .PP \f[C]\-V,\ \-\-version\f[] .PP Prints the version of \f[B]pmempool\f[]. .PP \f[C]\-h,\ \-\-help\f[] .PP Prints synopsis and list of commands. .SH COMMANDS .PP Currently there is a following set of commands available: .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-info\f[](1) \- Prints information and statistics in human\-readable format about specified pool. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-check\f[](1) \- Checks pool's consistency and repairs pool if it is not consistent. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-create\f[](1) \- Creates a pool of specified type with additional properties specific for this type of pool. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-dump\f[](1) \- Dumps usable data from pool in hexadecimal or binary format. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-rm\f[](1) Removes pool file or all pool files listed in pool set configuration file. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-convert\f[](1) \- Updates the pool to the latest available layout version. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-sync\f[](1) \- Synchronizes replicas within a poolset. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-transform\f[](1) \- Modifies internal structure of a poolset. .IP \[bu] 2 \f[B]pmempool\-feature\f[](1) \- Toggle or query a poolset features. .PP In order to get more information about specific \f[I]command\f[] you can use \f[B]pmempool help .\f[] .SH SEE ALSO .PP \f[B]libpmemblk\f[](7), \f[B]libpmemlog\f[](7), \f[B]libpmemobj\f[](7) and \f[B]\f[]
