       crm_attribute - query and update Pacemaker cluster options and node attributes

       Add new node attribute called 'location' with the value of 'office' for host 'myhost':

              crm_attribute --node myhost --name location --update office

       Query the value of the 'location' node attribute for host 'myhost':

              crm_attribute --node myhost --name location --query

       Change the value of the 'location' node attribute for host 'myhost':

              crm_attribute --node myhost --name location --update backoffice

       Delete the 'location' node attribute for host 'myhost':

              crm_attribute --node myhost --name location --delete

       Query the value of the 'cluster-delay' cluster option:

              crm_attribute --type crm_config --name cluster-delay --query

       Query value of the 'cluster-delay' cluster option and print only the value:

              crm_attribute --type crm_config --name cluster-delay --query --quiet

              Show output help

       --help-selections
              Show selecting options

       --help-command

   OutputOptions:--output-as=FORMAT
              Specify output format as one of: text (default), xml

       --output-to=DEST
              Specify file name for output (or "-" for stdout)

   Selectingattributes:-a, --all
              With  -L/--list-options,  include  advanced  and  deprecated options in the output. This is always
              treated as true when --output-as=xml is specified.

       -i, --id=XML_ID
              (Advanced) Operate on instance of specified attribute with this XML ID

       -n, --name=NAME
              Operate on attribute or option with this name.  For queries, this is optional, in which  case  all
              matching attributes will be returned.

       -P, --pattern=PATTERN
              Operate on all attributes matching this pattern (with -v, -D, or -G)

       -p, --promotion=RESOURCE
              Operate  on  node  attribute  used as promotion score for specified resource, or resource given in
              OCF_RESOURCE_INSTANCE environment variable if none is specified; this also defaults  -l/--lifetime
              to reboot (normally invoked from an OCF resource agent)

       -s, --set-name=NAME
              (Advanced) Operate on instance of specified attribute that is within set with this XML ID

   Commands:-L, --list-options=TYPE
              List all available options of the given type.  Allowed values: cluster

       -D, --delete
              Delete the attribute/option (with -n or -P)

       -G, --query
              Query the current value of the attribute/option.  See also: -n, -P-v, --update=VALUE
              Update the value of the attribute/option (with -n or -P)

   Additionaloptions:-d, --default=VALUE
              (Advanced) Default value to display if none is found in configuration

       -l, --lifetime=LIFETIME
              Lifetime of the node attribute.  Valid values: reboot, forever

       -N, --node=NODE
              Set a node attribute for named node (instead of a cluster option).  See also: -l-t, --type=SECTION
              Which  part  of the configuration to update/delete/query the option in.  Valid values: crm_config,
              rsc_defaults, op_defaults, tickets

       --score
              Treat new attribute values as atomic score updates where possible (with --update/-v, when  running
              against  a  CIB  file  or  updating an attribute outside the status section; enabled by default if
              --promotion/-p is specified)

       This currently happens by default and cannot be disabled, but
              this default behavior is deprecated and will be removed in a future release (exception: this  will
              remain the default with --promotion/-p). Set this flag if this behavior is desired.

       This option takes effect when updating XML attributes. For an
              attribute  named "name", if the new value is "name++" or "name+=X" for some score X, the new value
              is set as follows:

       * If attribute "name" is not already set to some value in
              the element being updated, the new value is set as a literal string.

       * If the new value is "name++", then the attribute is set to
              its existing value (parsed as a score) plus 1.

       * If the new value is "name+=X" for some score X, then the
              attribute is set to its existing value plus X, where the existing value and X are parsed and added
              as scores.

       Scores are integer values capped at INFINITY and -INFINITY.
              Refer to Pacemaker Explained for more details on scores, including how they are parsed and added.

       -W, --wait=UNTIL
              Wait for some event to occur before returning.  Values are  'no'  (wait  only  for  the  attribute
              daemon to acknowledge the request), 'local' (wait until the change has propagated to where a local
              query  will  return  the  request  value, or the value set by a later request), or 'cluster' (wait
              until the change has propagated to where a query anywhere on the cluster will return the requested
              value, or the value set by a later request).  Default is 'no'.  (with -N, and one of -D or -u)

       -z, --utilization
              Set an utilization attribute for the node.

   ApplicationOptions:
       -$, --version
              Display software version and exit

       -V, --verbose
              Increase debug output (may be specified multiple times)

       -q, --quiet
              Print only the value on stdout
