bbstored-config — Create config files for bbstored
bbstored-config <configdir> <servername>
<username>
The bbstored-config script creates config files
and server certificates for a bbstored instance. It takes three
parameters:
configdir: The directory where config files
will reside. A subdirectory bbstored will be created, where several
config files will reside. the bbstored.conf file
will be created in configdir.
servername: The name of the server that is
being configured. Usually the fully qualified domain name of the
machine in question.
username: The name of the user that should be
running the bbstored processes. Recommended name:
_bbstored.
A valid raidfile.conf(5) must be found in configdir. Several steps are taken during the run of bbstored-config:
Configuration files are created.
Server certificates are created. This requires interaction from the operator.
The raid volumes are checked, to ensure that the configuration is consistent, and will work.
Instructions for next steps to take are shown. These steps may be different for different OS platforms, so pay close attention to these instructions.
