NAME
qemud-cfg - read and print configurations of virtual machines.
SYNOPSIS
qemud-cfg [ options ] name
DESCRIPTION
qemud-cfg is designed as an executable library commonly invoked
qemu-adm and qemud-init .
OPTIONS
-c \
Print control parameters required by qemud-init on fd 3. The format is
KEY=VALUE. The keys will be set in the environment. qemud-init does use
these variables to start <name> .
-f \
Print the pidfile of <name> with absolute path on fd 3. The format is
PIDFILE=VARDIR/run/<name>-qemu.pid . qemud-init does use it to set
the qemu option -pidfile .
-p \
Print the actual configuration from config files of <name> in a human
friendly format to stdout.
-r \
Print the actual runtime configuration of <name> in a human friendly
format to stdout. If <name> is not running qemud-cfg
does fallback to -p automatically.
-x \
Read the config files of <name> and print the qemu
command line on fd 4. Required by qemud-init to start a virtual machine.
-v \
Make qemud-cfg more verbose. Could be used multiple times. Takes effect with
-p or -r only.
Only one of the options -p , -r or
-x could be used at a time.
CONFIG FILES
qemud-cfg reads the configuration from <name>-qemud.rc
(required) and <name>-qemu.cfg (optional). See man qemu-init(5) for details.
RETURN CODES
qemud-cfg returns 0 on success. Otherwise it returns with an error code and
sets errno accordingly.
