If neither is specified, the value of PULL is - used. - This does NOT use AUTO_WORLDS or MANUAL_WORLDS. -restart-config Contains configuration settings. - SERVER_SOURCE is the location of the tmw-eathena clone. - LOGIN_WORLD is the location of the clone that contains the - account data. It does not necessarily have to correspond to - a world that actually starts, although it does in the - current configuration - AUTO_WORLDS is an array (space separated, surrounded by - parentheses) of world directories that will have updates - pulled when calling restart-all. - MANUAL_WORLDS is an array of world directories that will not - have updates pulled when calling restart-all - VERBOSE controls whether the servers will print their output - to the tty or have it redirected to /dev/null. Use if if - you have any problems. It is inspected by the low-level - command restart-pid. - REBUILD controls whether the server sources will be rebuilt - during restart-all. - PULL controls whether updates should be pulled by - restart-world. It is ignored if --auto or --manual - is specified, which is the case during restart-all. - All of these variables (except probably the arrays) can be - specified in the environment, but the values in restart-config - override them. However, since restart-config is a bash script, - you could conditionally set the variables by using if test ... - -There are also two commands you'll probably never have to call yourself: -restart-login is self-explanatory and is usually called only by restart-all -restart-pid is the low-level command that maintains the PID file and kills - the old servers. In order for the server to be killed, three - things must match: the PID, and name, and the user. - This will keep errors to a minimum in case PID files continue - to exist after the processes have died and new processes have - taken their IDs. - - There's a theoretical case in which the replacing process will - be a new instance of the same process by the same user in a - different world directory. The odds of this happening are - theoretically 1 in 32767-ish, but in practice might be a bit - more common than that. If you find your newly-spawned children - did not survive, try running restart-all again. |
