varnishadm - Control a running varnish instance

SYNOPSIS

[-t timeout ] [-S secret_file ] -T address : port [command [... ] ]

DESCRIPTION

The utility establishes a CLI connection using the -T and -S arguments.

If a command is given, the command and arguments are sent over the CLI connection and the result returned on stdout.

If no command argument is given will pass commands and replies between the CLI socket and stdin/stdout.

The following options are available:

-t timeout

Wait no longer than this many seconds for an operation to finish.

-S secret_file

Specify the authentication secret file.

This should be the same -S argument as was given to varnishd

Only processes which can read the contents of this file, will be able to authenticate the CLI connection.

-T address : port

Connect to the management interface at the specified address and port.

Available commands and parameters are documented in the varnishd(1) manual page. Additionally, a summary of commands can be obtained by issuing the help command, and a summary of parameters can be obtained by issuing the param.show command.

EXIT STATUS

If a command is given, the exit status of the utility is zero if the command succeeded, and non-zero otherwise.
