\" RCSID: $Header$
.SH NAME
stella \- examine and modify information about hosts in Moira
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B stella hostname [options]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Stella
is a tool for updating information about hosts in Moira. It supports
all host modification commands and a few options to change cluster
mapping.

If no options are specified, it will assume \fI-info\fR, which will
result in all information about the specified host being displayed.

.SH OPTIONS

.IP \fB-info\ \fRor\ \fB-i\fR
Display information about a host. This is the default mode if no other
options are given. The output is similar to that of moira.

.IP \fB-addalias\ \fIaliasname\ \fRor\ \fB-a\ \fIaliasname\fR
This will add \fIaliasname\fR as an alias for the given host. This
option can be specified multiple times with different alias names
on the same command line.
.IP \fB-deletealias\ \fIaliasname\ \fRor\ \fB-d\ \fIaliasname\fR
This will remove the alias \fIaliasname\fR for the given host. This
option can be specified multiple times with different alias names
on the same command line.

.IP \fB-listmap\ \fRor\ \fB-lm\fR
This will list cluster mappings for the specified host; that is,
the clusters to which the host belongs.
.IP \fB-addmap\ \fIcluster\ \fRor\ \fB-am\ \fIcluster\fR
This will add the specified host to \fIcluster\fR.
.IP \fB-deletemap\ \fIcluster\ \fRor\ \fB-dm\ \fIcluster\fR
This will delete the specified host from \fIcluster\fR.

.IP \fB-vendor\ \fIvendor\ \fRor\ \fB-V\ \fIvendor\fR
Update the vendor field for the specified host to \fIvendor\fR.
.IP \fB-model\ \fImodel\ \fRor\ \fB-M\ \fImodel\fR
Update the model field for the specified host to \fImodel\fR.
.IP \fB-os\ \fIos\ \fRor\ \fB-o\ \fIos\fR
Update the OS field for the specified host to \fIos\fR.
.IP \fB-location\ \fIlocation\ \fRor\ \fB-L\ \fIlocation\fR
Update the location field for the specified host to \fIlocation\fR.

.IP \fB-address\ \fIaddress\ \fRor\ \fB-A\ \fIaddress\fR
Change the address of the given host to \fIaddress\fR.
.IP \fB-network\ \fInetwork\ \fRor\ \fB-N\ \fInetwork\fR
Change the network for the given host to \fInetwork\fR.

.IP \fB-opcmt\ \fIop_cmt\ \fRor\ \fB-oc\ \fIop_cmt\fR
Set the operational comment for the specified host to \fIop_cmt\fR.
.IP \fB-admcmt\ \fIadm_cmt\ \fRor\ \fB-ac\ \fIadm_cmt\fR
Set the administrative comment for the specified host to \fIadm_cmt\fR.

.IP \fB-contact\ \fIcontact\ \fRor\ \fB-c\ \fIcontact\fR
Update the contact information for the given host to \fIcontact\fR.
.IP \fB-status\ \fIstatus\ \fRor\ \fB-S\ \fIstatus\fR
Set the status of the specified host to \fIstatus\fR.

.IP \fB-owner\ \fIowner\ \fRor\ \fB-O\ \fIowner\fR
Set the owner of the specified host to \fIowner\fR.

You may specify an owner explicitly, as user:username, list:listname,
string:string_text, or kerberos:principal_name; or the type may be
left off if the owner name is non ambiguous.
.B Stella
will try first as a user, and if that fails will try the member as a
list, and finally fall back to string if both of those fail.

.IP \fB-verbose\ \fRor\ \fB-v\fR
Give more information.  With this flag, stella will display the
queries it is making to the moira server.
.IP \fB-noauth\ \fRor\ \fB-n\fR
Do not attempt to perform Kerberos authentication with the Moira server.
Most lookup operations should be still possible without tickets.
.IP \fB-database\ \fIhost:port\ \fRor\ \fB-db\ \fIhost:port\fR
Use the specified host and port to contact the Moira database instead of
the default server.  Both may be symbolic names or numbers.  If the
port is left off, the default Moira server port will be assumed.  The
database chosen will be the one specified on the command line, specified
in the MOIRASERVER environment variable, the hesiod "moira" sloc entry,
or the compiled in default, in that order or preference.

.IP \fB-create\ \fRor\ \fB-C\fR
This will create the specified host, with information provided by other
options. By default, the host will be owned by NONE and will be active.
.IP \fB-delete\ \fRor\ \fB-D\fR
This will delete the specified host, if the status field is already set
to Deleted (3).
.IP \fB-rename\ \fInewname\ \fRor\ \fB-R\ \fInewname\fR
This will rename the given host to \fInewname\fR.

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
An exit status of 2 indicates a problem contacting the server. An exit
status of 1 indicates that the arguments could not be parsed or some
query to the moira server returned an error. An exit status of 0
indicates that all operations requested completed successfully.

.SH NOTES
The hostname doesn't actually have to be the first argument, but if
you put it anywhere else, it's easy to get the other arguments in the
wrong order and do something other than what you intended.
