DESCRIPTION

       gnunet-arm  can  be  used  to  start  or stop GNUnet services, including the ARM service itself.  The ARM
       service is a supervisor for GNUnet's service processes.  ARM starts services on-demand or  as  configured
       and restarts them if they crash.

       -c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME
               Use the configuration file FILENAME.

       -d | --delete
               Delete configuration file and directory on exit.

       -e | --end
               Shutdown all GNUnet services (including ARM itself).  Running "gnunet-arm -e" is the usual way to
               shutdown a GNUnet peer.

       -E | --no-stderr
               Don't let gnunet-arm inherit stderr (standard error).

       -h | --help
               Print short help on options.

       -i SERVICE | --init=SERVICE
               Starts  the  specified  SERVICE  if it is not already running.  More specifically, this makes the
               service behave as if it were in the default services list.

       -I | --info
               List all running services.

       -k SERVICE | --kill=SERVICE
               Stop SERVICE if it is running.  While this will kill the service right now, the  service  may  be
               restarted  immediately  if other services depend on it (the service is then started 'on-demand').
               If the service used to be a 'default' service, its default-service status will  be  revoked.   If
               the  service  was  not a default service, it will just be (temporarily) stopped, but could be re-
               started on-demand at any time.

       -l FILENAME | --logfile=FILENAME
               Write logs to FILENAME.

       -L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL
               Use LOGLEVEL for logging.  Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR.

       -m | --monitor
               Monitor service activity of ARM.  In this mode, the command will not  terminate  until  the  user
               presses CTRL-C (thus sending SIGTERM or SIGINT).

       -O | --no-stdout
               Don't let gnunet-arm inherit standard output

       -q | --quiet
               Don't print status messages.

       -r | --restart
               Stop and start all GNUnet default services.

       -s | --start
               Start  all  GNUnet  default  services  on this system (and also ARM).  Naturally, if a service is
               demanded by a default service, it will then also be started.   Running  "gnunet-arm  -s"  is  the
               usual way to start a GNUnet peer.

       -T -DELAY | --timeout=DELAY
               Exit  with  error  status  if  operation  does  not  finish  after  DELAY,  provided in number of
               microseconds.

       -v | --version
               Print GNUnet version number.

EXAMPLES

       Start the gnunet-arm for the user:

             gnunet-arm -s

       Stop the gnunet-arm for the user:

             $ gnunet-arm -e
