SVC Manage

Overview

The svcmanage binary program allows users to execute all actions that would otherwise be performed via the N2SVCD management GUI. In situations where a user may not have browser access or the ability to connect to a remote machine this tool allows all management tasks to be performed via a command line environment. The default installation location for this binary is /usr/share/n2svcd/bin/n2svcd.

Running svcmanage --help will show the program usage.

usage:

    # Simple list of all applications.
    svcmanage [common-options]
    svcmanage [common-options] [--list]

    # Summary for all applications or a single application.
    svcmanage [common-options] --summary [<App-Name>]

    # Statistics for all applications or a single application.
    svcmanage [common-options] --statistics [<App-Name>]

    # Resource Drilldown for a specific configuration vector details.
    svcmanage [common-options] --configuration <App-Name> <Configuration-Key>

    # Resource Drilldown for a specific resource vector details.
    svcmanage [common-options] --resource <App-Name> <Resource-Key>

    # Configuration change an editable configuration value.
    svcmanage [common-options] [--set] <App-Name> <Configuration-Key> <New-Value>

    # Configuration create a new configuration vector.
    svcmanage [common-options] [--create-vector] <App-Name> <Configuration-Key> <New-Value-JSON>

    # Configuration update an editable configuration vector.
    svcmanage [common-options] [--update-vector] <App-Name> <Configuration-Key> <Vector-IDX> <New-Value-JSON>

    # [common-options]
        --date                          # Include Y-M-D for time/date fields.
        --host <rest-rpc-host>          Default = 'localhost'.
        --port <rest-rpc-port>          Default = 8088.
        --secure
        --user <username>
        --pass <password>

Common Options

The following common options may be specified with all svcmanage options.

Option	Type	Description
`--date`	Switch	By default all timestamps will only include time information. Specifying `--date` will format all timestamps to include date information.
`--host`	String	Specifying `--host` allows for the specification of a non standard REST RPC interface host. Defaults to `localhost`
`--port`	String	Specifying `--port` allows for the specification of a non standard REST RPC interface port. Defaults to `8088`
`--secure`	Flag	Specifying `--secure` indicates that the REST RPC interface host should be contacted over HTTPS. Defaults to not specified, i.e. HTTP is used.
`--user`	String	By default the N2SVCD management GUI does not require a username or password. If the application is running in a secure mode `--user` can be provided to specify a login username. If `--user` is specified `--pass` is required.
`--pass`	String	By default the N2SVCD management GUI does not require a username or password. If the application is running in a secure mode `--pass` can be provided to specify a login password. If `--pass` is specified `--user` is required.

Flag: `--list`

By default, svcmanage with no options will list all the available applications and their current status. This can be explicitly be invoked by passing the --list flag.
