GRID-REGISTER(1)GRID-REGISTER(1)NAME
grid: register - registers a resource with a known registry(4)SYNOPSIS
grid/register [ option ... ] { command ... }
DESCRIPTION
Register takes a program that serves a namespace using the 9P protocol
on its standard input and registers it with a known registery(4). (See
intro(5) for a description of the protocol.) It then marshals the ser‐
vice by listening for incoming connections and exporting the namespace
across them. Register prints out various status messages to stdout in
the form which may be read by grid-monitor(1).
OPTIONS-u maxusers Specifies the maximum number of connections to the
resource at any one time. If not given, any number of
connections are allowed.
-e n Tells register to exit after the last connection has
gone away. N is a threshold value, so that register
will not exit upon the last connection going away
until the number of incoming connections has reached
at least n.
-a 'name=value' Specifies the name and value of an attribute to be
listed as belonging to the resource when registered
with the registry(4).
-A address Allows the user to specify the address for the service
to announce on. Address takes the form
tcp!machine!port
-m Includes the amount of free main memory as part of the
attributes list.
