DESCRIPTION

ggaoed is an AoE target. It allows exporting files and block devices over the network using the ATA over Ethernet protocol.

OPTIONS

-c file--config file

Use the specified config file instead of /etc/ggaoed.conf.

-d--debug

Debug mode: do not fork to the background, send all output to stderr istead of syslog, and turn on I/O tracing by default.

-h--help

Show a short help text.

-n--nofork

Do not fork to the background. Useful if you want to run ggaoed under a debugger.

-V--version

Print the version number and exit.

SIGNALS

When ggaoed receives a SIGHUP signal, it re-reads its configuration file. Devices that are no longer present in the configuration are unexported, and new devices are exported.

DEPENDENCIES

ggaoed requires at least Linux kernel 2.6.27 with eventfd(2), timerfd and epoll(2) support enabled.

FILES

/etc/ggaoed.conf
