NAME¶
gearmand - Gearman client/worker connector.
SYNOPSIS¶
gearmand --daemon
DESCRIPTION¶
This is the main executable for Gearman::Server. It provides command-line
configuration of port numbers, pidfiles, and daemonization.
OPTIONS¶
- --daemonize / -d
- Make the daemon run in the background (good for init.d
scripts, bad for running under daemontools/supervise).
- --port=7003 / -p 7003
- Set the port number, defaults to 7003.
- --pidfile=/some/dir/gearmand.pid
- Write a pidfile when starting up
- --debug=1
- Enable debugging (currently the only debug output is when a
client or worker connects).
- --accept=10
- Number of new connections to accept each time we see a
listening socket ready. This doesn't usually need to be tuned by anyone,
however in dire circumstances you may need to do it quickly.
- --wakeup=3
- Number of workers to wake up per job inserted into the
queue.
Zero (0) is a perfectly acceptable answer, and can be used if you don't care
much about job latency. This would bank on the base idea of a worker
checking in with the server every so often.
Negative One (-1) indicates that all sleeping workers should be woken up.
All other negative numbers will cause the server to throw exception and not
start.
- --wakeup-delay=
- Time interval before waking up more workers (the value
specified by --wakeup) when jobs are still in the queue.
Zero (0) means go as fast as possible, but not all at the same time. Similar
to -1 on --wakeup, but is more cooperative in gearmand's multitasking
model.
Negative One (-1) means that this event won't happe, so only the initial
workers will be woken up to handle jobs in the queue.
