NAME
       corosync-objctl - Configure objects in the Object Database

SYNOPSIS
       corosync-objctl [-b] [-c|-w|-d|-a|-t-h] <OBJECT-SPEC>...

DESCRIPTION
       corosync-objctl is used to configure objects within the object database at runtime.

OBJECT-SPEC
       There are two types of entities
              Objects and Key=Value pairs

       Objects
              Objects  are container like entities that can hold other entities.  They are speci‐
              fied as "objectA"."objectB".  An example is logging.logger.

       Key=Value pairs
              These are the entities that actually hold values (read  database  "fields").   They
              are specified as object.key=value or just object.key if you are reading.

OPTIONS
       -c     Create a new object.

       -d     Delete an existing object.

       -w     Use this option when you want to write a new value to a key.

       -a     Display all values currently available.

       -t     Track  changes  to  an  object and it's children. As changes are made to the object
              they are printed out. this is kind of like a "tail -f" for the object database.

       -h     Print basic usage.

       -b     Display binary values in BASH backslash escape sequences format.

EXAMPLES
       Print the objOne object (shouldn't exist yet).
              $ corosync-objctl objOne

       Create the objOne object.
              $ corosync-objctl -c objOne

       Print the objOne object (empty).
              $ corosync-objctl objOne
              objOne

       Write two new keys to the objOne object.
              $ corosync-objctl -w objOne.max=3000 objOne.min=100

       Print the objOne object (with the two new keys).
              $ corosync-objctl objOne
              objOne.min=100
              objOne.max=3000

       Delete the objOne.min key
              $ corosync-objctl -d objOne.min=100

       Prove that is gone.
              $ corosync-objctl objOne
              objOne.max=3000

       Delete the whole objOne object.
              $ corosync-objctl -d objOne

       Prove that is gone.
              $ corosync-objctl objOne
