CNID_METAD(8) | Netatalk AFP Fileserver Manual | CNID_METAD(8) |
NAME¶
cnid_metad - daemon for starting cnid_dbd(8) daemons on demand
SYNOPSIS¶
cnid_metad [-d] [-F configuration file]
cnid_metad -v | -V
DESCRIPTION¶
cnid_metad waits for requests from afpd to start up instances of the cnid_dbd daemon. It keeps track of the status of a cnid_dbd instance once started and will restart it if necessary. cnid_metad is normally started at boot time by netatalk(8) and runs until shutdown.
OPTIONS¶
-d
-F configuration file
-v, -V
CAVEATS¶
cnid_metad does not block or catch any signals apart from SIGPIPE. It will therefore exit on most signals received. This will also cause all instances of cnid_dbd's started by that cnid_metad to exit gracefully. Since state about and IPC access to the subprocesses is only maintained in memory by cnid_metad this is desired behaviour. As soon as cnid_metad is restarted afpd processes will transparently reconnect.
