.IP "\fB\-\-unixctl=\fIsocket\fR"
|
|
|
|
Sets the name of the control socket on which \fB\*(PN\fR listens for
|
|
|
|
runtime management commands (see \fBRUNTIME MANAGEMENT COMMANDS\fR,
|
|
|
|
below). If \fIsocket\fR does not begin with \fB/\fR, it is
|
|
|
|
interpreted as relative to \fB@RUNDIR@\fR. If \fB\-\-unixctl\fR is
|
|
|
|
not used at all, the default socket is
|
|
|
|
\fB@RUNDIR@/\*(PN.\fIpid\fB.ctl\fR, where \fIpid\fR is \fB\*(PN\fR's
|
|
|
|
process ID.

.IP

|
On Windows, uses a kernel chosen TCP port on the localhost to listen
|
|
|
|
for runtime management commands. The kernel chosen TCP port value is written
|
|
|
|
in a file whose absolute path is pointed by \fIsocket\fR. If \fB\-\-unixctl\fR
|
|
|
|
is not used at all, the file is created as \fB\*(PN.ctl\fR in the configured
|
|
|
|
\fIOVS_RUNDIR\fR directory.

Specifying \fBnone\fR for \fIsocket\fR disables the control socket
|
|
|
|
feature.
