taskdctl - Taskserver control program
Contents
Commands
Taskdctl supports several commands:
taskdctlstart
Starts the server as a daemon, if it is not already running. It is harmless to run this command
if the server is already running.
taskdctlstop
Stops the server, if it is running. It is harmless to run this command if the server is not
running.
taskdctlrestart
Stops the server, if it is running, then starts the server again. This is done by killing the
server process. This will interrupt any current sync sessions, probably causing an error. It is
harmless to run this command if the server is not running.
taskdctlgraceful
Stops the server, if it is running, by waiting for the server to go idle, then restarts the server
again. This is done by sending SIGHUP signal to the server. This will not interrupt any current
sync sessions. It is harmless to run this command if the server is not running.
taskdctlstatus
Shows the status of the Taskserver, whether it is running or not.

Description
The taskdctl program allows you to start and stop Taskserver. The TASKDDATA environment variable is used
to locate the root data structure, and query the configuration to obtain the location of the pid file.
Environment Variables
Taskdctl requires that the TAKSDDATA environment variable be properly set. This is because the root data
structure is accessed.
