NAME
       mfssupervisor - tool for controlling the work of MooseFS master process


SYNOPSIS
       mfssupervisor  [-xdfrc]  [-l new leader ip] [-s mode] [-B local address] [-H master host name] [-P master
       supervising port]

       mfssupervisor -v

       mfssupervisor -h


DESCRIPTION
       mfssupervisor is the supervisor program of MooseFS. It can be used to force certain  actions  of  MooseFS
       master(s), like saving metadata or changing leadership. When no action (options -r, -l or -s) is defined,
       the tool will just display info about the master(s) current state(s).


OPTIONS
       -v     print version information and exit

       -h     print usage information and exit

       -x     produce more verbose output

       -d     (pro only) dry run (print info, but do not change anything)

       -f     (pro only) force electing not synchronized follower; see NOTES

       -r     (pro  only)  try  to resolve the master states situation; usually selects one of the followers and
              sets its state to ELECT if no elects or leaders are present

       -l     (pro only) try to change the role of the master with given IP to leader;

       -c     (pro only) run configuration consistency check; if any inconsistencies are present, they  will  be
              reported via syslog

       -s     force  metadata  store  or  (pro  only) metadata check on given master group (pro version requires
              specifying a mode, possible values: L - LEADER only, F - FOLLOWERS only, A - all servers with  CRC
              check, C - all servers CRC check only, no metadata is stored on disk)

       -B     local address to use for master connections (default: *, i.e. default local address)

       -H     use given host to find your master server(s) (default: mfsmaster)

       -P     use given port to connect to your master server(s) (default: 9419)


NOTES
       Options -s,-r and -l are mutually exclusive

       Option -f can be used only with option -r

       Option -d can be used only with option -r or -l

       Option  -f  shouldn't be used unless it is necessary in situations when not all master servers defined in
       DNS are connected (i.e. after a crash when one of the master machines  is  offline).  In  an  environment
       where all master machines are present, the leader should be picked automatically.
