lvs − daemon to control the Red Hat clustering services.
lvs [-c cfgfile|--configfile=cfgfile] [-n|--nodaemon] [-t|--test-start] [-?|--help] [--usage]
lvs reads in the cluster configuration file /etc/lvs.cf, calls ipvsadm to maintain the IPVS routing table, and nanny to perform monitoring services.
lvs is normally started by pulse although it can be run as a command line tool. Similarly, the configuration file that tells lvs what to do is normally edited by piranha, but it can be manually edited.
All activity from lvs is logged to syslog (when lvs is running as a daemon).
-c cfgfile|--configfile=cfgfile
Normally, lvs uses /etc/lvs.cf as its configuration file, but this can be overridden and another file can be used.
-n|--nodaemon
Normally, lvs runs as a daemon, however using this option, lvs runs in the foreground. When running in this mode, all its output is sent to STDOUT instead of syslog.
-t|--test-start
Running lvs is test mode allows the user to monitor what lvs would actually do. This is only useful during debugging.
-?|--help
Shows a verbose usage listing.
--usage
Outputs a terse argument summary.
