DESCRIPTION

16       A systemtap compile server listens for connections from stap clients on
17       a  secure  SSL  network port and accepts requests to run the stap front
18       end. Each server advertises its presence and configuration on the local
19       network using mDNS (avahi) allowing for automatic detection by clients.
20
21
22       The stap-server script aims to provide:
23
24       ·   management of systemtap compile servers as a service.
25
26       ·   convenient  control over configured servers and individual (ad-hoc)
27           servers.

ARGUMENTS

31       One of the actions below must be specified:
32
33       start  Start servers. The specified servers are started.  If no  server
34              is  specified, the configured servers are started. If no servers
35              are configured, a server for the kernel release and architecture
36              of  the  host  is  started.   If  a  specified server is already
37              started, this action will be  ignored  for  that  server.  If  a
38              server fails to start, this action fails.
39
40
41       stop   Stop server(s). The specified servers are stopped.  If no server
42              is specified, all currently running servers are stopped.   If  a
43              specified  server is not running, this action will be successful
44              for that server. If a server fails to stop, this action fails.
45
46
47       restart
48              Stop and restart servers. The specified servers are stopped  and
49              restarted.   If  no  server  is specified, all currently running
50              servers are stopped and restarted. If no  servers  are  running,
51              this action behaves like start.
52
53
54       condrestart
55              Stop  and restart servers. The specified servers are stopped and
56              restarted.  If a specified server is  not  running,  it  is  not
57              started.  If  no  server  is  specified,  all  currently running
58              servers are stopped and restarted.  If no servers  are  running,
59              none will be started.
60
61
62       try-restart
63              This action is identical to condrestart.
64
65
66       force-reload
67              Stop  all  running  servers, reload config files and restart the
68              service as if start was specified.
69
70
71       status Print information about running servers. Information  about  the
72              specified  server(s) will be printed. If no server is specified,
73              information about all running servers will be printed.
74
75

OPTIONS

77       The following options are used to provide additional configuration  and
78       to specify servers to be managed:
79
80
81       -c configfile
82              This option specifies a global configuration file in addition to
83              the default global configuration file described below. This file
84              will  be  processed after the default global configuration file.
85              If the -c option is specified more than once, the last  configu‐
86              ration file specified will be used.
87
88
89       -a architecture
90              This  option specifies the target architecture of the server and
91              is analo
