=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command stops and immediately restarts server processes on the server machine named by the B<-server> argument. Indicate which process or processes to restart by providing one of the following arguments: =over 4 =item * The B<-instance> argument names each AFS server process to stop and restart immediately, regardless of its status flag in the F file. Do not include B in the list of processes; use the B<-bosserver> flag instead. =item * The B<-bosserver> flag stops all AFS server processes running on the machine, including the BOS Server. A new BOS Server starts immediately, and it starts a new instance of each process that is marked with the C status flag in the F file. =item * The B<-all> flag stops all AFS server processes running on the machine, except the BOS Server, and immediately restarts the processes that are marked with the C status flag in the F file. =back This command does not change a process's status flag in the F file. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-server> > Indicates the server machine on which to restart each process. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see L. =item B<-instance> >+ Names each process to stop and then restart immediately regardless of its status flag setting. Use the process name assigned with the B<-instance> argument to the B command. The output from the B command lists the names. Provide this flag or one of the B<-bosserver> or B<-all> options, but do not combine them. =item B<-bosserver> Stops all AFS server processes running on the machine, including the BOS Server. A new BOS Server instance immediately starts, and starts all processes marked with the C status flag in the F file. Provide this flag or one of the B<-instance> or B<-all> options, but do not combine them. =item B<-all> Stops all AFS server processes running on the machine other than the BOS Server, and immediately restarts the processes marked with the B status flag in the F file. Provide this flag or one of the B<-instance> or B<-bosserver> options, but do not combine them. =item B<-cell> > Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-noauth> Assigns the unprivileged identity C to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L. =item B<-localauth> Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local F file. The B command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> or B<-noauth> options. For more details, see L. =item B<-help> Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. =back =head1 EXAMPLES The following command stops and restarts all processes running on the machine C, including the BOS Server. % bos restart -server fs3.example.com -bosserver The following command stops and restarts all processes running on the machine C, excluding the BOS Server. % bos restart -server fs5.example.com -all The following command stops and restarts the Protection Server and Volume Location (VL) Server processes on the machine C: % bos restart -server db3.example.com -instance ptserver vlserver =head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The issuer must be listed in the F file on the machine named by the B<-server> argument, or must be logged onto a server machine as the local superuser C if the B<-localauth> flag is included. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, L, L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000.
