36 <P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
37 <P>The <B>bos getrestart</B> command displays two restart times from the
38 <B>/usr/afs/local/BosConfig</B> file on the server machine named by the
39 <B>-server</B> argument:
41 <P><LI>The <I>general restart</I> time at which the BOS Server process
42 automatically restarts itself and all processes marked with status
43 <TT>Run</TT> in the <B>BosConfig</B> file. The default is Sunday
45 <P><LI>The <I>binary restart</I> time at which the BOS Server automatically
46 restarts any process for which the time stamp on the binary file in the
47 <B>/usr/afs/bin</B> directory is later than the last restart time for the
48 process. The default is 5:00 a.m. Use the <B>bos
49 getdate</B> command to list a binary file's timestamp, and the
50 <B>-long</B> flag to the <B>bos status</B> command to display a
51 process's most recent restart time.
53 <P>Use the <B>bos setrestart</B> command to set the restart times.
54 <P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
56 <P><DT><B><B>-server</B>
57 </B><DD>Indicates the server machine for which to display the restart
58 times. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either
59 fully-qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see the
60 introductory reference page for the <B>bos</B> command suite.
61 <P><DT><B><B>-cell</B>
62 </B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this
63 argument with the <B>-localauth</B> flag. For more details, see the
64 introductory <B>bos</B> reference page.
65 <P><DT><B><B>-noauth</B>
66 </B><DD>Assigns the unprivileged identity <B>anonymous</B> to the
67 issuer. Do not combine this flag with the <B>-localauth</B>
68 flag. For more details, see the introductory <B>bos</B> reference
70 <P><DT><B><B>-localauth</B>
71 </B><DD>Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
72 <B>/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile</B> file. The <B>bos</B> command
73 interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual
74 authentication. Do not combine this flag with the <B>-cell</B> or
75 <B>-noauth</B> options. For more details, see the introductory
76 <B>bos</B> reference page.
78 </B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
81 <P><STRONG>Output</STRONG>
82 <P>The output consists of two lines:
83 <PRE> Server <VAR>machine_name</VAR> restarts at <VAR>time</VAR>
84 Server <VAR>machine_name</VAR> restarts for new binaries at <VAR>time</VAR>
87 <P>Possible values for <I>time</I> include:
89 <P><LI><TT>never</TT>, indicating that the BOS Server never performs that type
91 <P><LI><TT>now</TT>, indicating that the BOS Server performs that type of
92 restart only each time it restarts
93 <P><LI>A specified day and time, indicating that the BOS Server performs that
94 type of restart once per week. Example: <TT>sun 4:00
96 <P><LI>A specified time, indicating that the BOS Server performs that type of
97 restart once per day. Examples: <TT>11:00 pm</TT>,
100 <P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
101 <P>The following example displays the restart times for the machine
103 <PRE> % <B>bos getrestart db2.abc.com</B>
104 Server db2.abc.com restarts at sun 4:00 am
105 Server db2.abc.com restarts for new binaries at 2:15 am
108 <P>In the following example, the issuer abbreviates the machine name
109 <B>fs1.abc.com</B> to <B>fs1</B>, relying on the
110 cell's name server to resolve the name. The output echoes the
112 <PRE> % <B>bos getrestart fs1</B>
113 Server fs1 restarts at sat 5:00 am
114 Server fs1 restarts for new binaries at 11:30 pm
