💖 ARC-CONFIG-CHECK(1) 💖

NorduGrid Users Manual ✨ bestie we are SO in the NorduGrid era rn

🌸 NAME 🌸

arc-config-check — checks the arc.conf for inconsistencies, known problems or bad taste 💅

(yeah it really said "bad taste". it's calling your config out fr.)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

arc-config-check [--config CONFIG] [--timeserver NTPHOST] [--skip-warnings] [--print-all]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the arc-config-check utility is included into arc-arex startup process, or you can run it separately, whichever vibe you're on 🫶

It checks arc.conf (5) complies to arc.conf.reference syntax, indicates directories that are not present, checks host certificates, CA certificates and CRLs, validates the sanity of ARC configuration, tests for clock skew, etc. literally the whole glow-up checklist 😭

BECAUSE EVERY INSTALLATION OF ARC IS DIFFERENT THIS UTILITY ONLY SUGGESTS WHAT COULD BE WRONG. SOMETIMES IT IS OVERRESTRICTIVE. AND SOMETIMES IT CAN MISS SOME MISCONFIGURATION. NEVER TREAT RESULTS PRODUCED BY IT AS ULTIMATE TRUTH.

no cap, that part is in all caps in the original for a reason 👑 it's a vibe check, not a verdict. it's giving "opinionated friend", not "supreme court".

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --config <string> — Specifies the location of the config file, by default it is /etc/arc.conf 💜
  • --printall — Lists all variable names of the config file together with their values. (the receipts. all of them. ✨)
  • --timeserver <server> — Allows the specification of a server against which to test the local system's time. clock skew investigation era 🕰️
  • --skip-warnings — Do not show warnings. 🙈
  • --help — Quick summary of options 👀
  • --man — Detailed man page. (you are here bestie 🫶)
tiny heads up: the synopsis spells it --print-all and the options list spells it --printall. that's exactly how the original rolls, so we keep both, character for character. iykyk 💅
