NAME

swift-init - OpenStack Swift swift-init tool

SYNOPSIS

swift-init
<server> [<server> ...] <command> [options]

DESCRIPTION

The swift-init tool can be used to initialize all swift daemons available as part of OpenStack Swift. Instead of calling individual init scripts for each swift daemon, one can just use swift-init. With swift-init you can initialize just one swift service, such as the "proxy", or a combination of them. The tool also allows one to use the keywords such as "all", "main" and "rest" for the <server> argument.

Servers:

proxy
- Initializes the swift proxy daemon

object, object-replicator, object-auditor, object-updater
- Initializes the swift object daemons above

container, container-update, container-replicator, container-auditor
- Initializes the swift container daemons above

account, account-auditor, account-reaper, account-replicator
- Initializes the swift account daemons above

all
- Initializes all the swift daemons

main
- Initializes all the main swift daemons
(proxy, container, account and object servers)

rest
- Initializes all the other swift background daemons
(updater, replicator, auditor, reaper, etc)

Commands:

force-reload: alias for reload
no-daemon: start a server interactively
no-wait: spawn server and return immediately
once: start server and run one pass on supporting daemons
reload: graceful shutdown then restart on supporting servers
reload-seamless: reload supporting servers with no downtime
restart: stops then restarts server
shutdown: allow current requests to finish on supporting servers
start: starts a server
status: display status of tracked pids for server
stop: stops a server

Options:

-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose display verbose output
-w, --no-wait won't wait for server to start before returning
-o, --once only run one pass of daemon
-n, --no-daemon start server interactively
-g, --graceful send SIGHUP to supporting servers
-c N, --config-num=N send command to the Nth server only
-k N, --kill-wait=N wait N seconds for processes to die (default 15)
-r RUN_DIR, --run-dir=RUN_DIR directory where the pids will be stored (default /var/run/swift)
--strict return non-zero status code if some config is missing. Default mode if server is explicitly named.
--non-strict return zero status code even if some config is missing. Default mode if server is one of aliases `all`, `main` or `rest`.
--kill-after-timeout kill daemon and all children after kill-wait period.
