NAME

6       gearmand - Gearman client/worker connector.
7

SYNOPSIS

9        gearmand --daemon
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This is the main executable for Gearman::Server.  It provides command-
13       line configuration of port numbers, pidfiles, and daemonization.
14

OPTIONS

16       --daemonize / -d
17           Make the daemon run in the background (good for init.d scripts, bad
18           for running under daemontools/supervise).
19
20       --port=7003 / -p 7003
21           Set the port number, defaults to 7003.
22
23       --pidfile=/some/dir/gearmand.pid
24           Write a pidfile when starting up
25
26       --debug=1
27           Enable debugging (currently the only debug output is when a client
28           or worker connects).
29
30       --accept=10
31           Number of new connections to accept each time we see a listening
32           socket ready. This doesn't usually need to be tuned by anyone,
33           however in dire circumstances you may need to do it quickly.
34
35       --wakeup=3
36           Number of workers to wake up per job inserted into the queue.
37
38           Zero (0) is a perfectly acceptable answer, and can be used if you
39           don't care much about job latency.  This would bank on the base
40           idea of a worker checking in with the server every so often.
41
42           Negative One (-1) indicates that all sleeping workers should be
43           woken up.
44
45           All other negative numbers will cause the server to throw exception
46           and not start.
47
48       --wakeup-delay=
49           Time interval before waking up more workers (the value specified by
50           --wakeup) when jobs are still in the queue.
51
52           Zero (0) means go as fast as possible, but not all at the same
53           time. Similar to -1 on --wakeup, but is more cooperative in
54           gearmand's multitasking model.
55
56           Negative One (-1) means that this event won't happe, so only the
57           initial workers will be woken up to handle jobs in the queue.
