🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea ☕: this command extends the watchdog time for one or more recipes. How? by giving it one or more <taskspec> arguments or <fqdn> arguments. literally that simple 🫶

Now for the format of those <taskspec> arguments, it's either:

  • R:<recipe_id>
  • T:<recipe_task_id>

and the <fqdn> arguments? those are for specifying recipes that are running on the systems. iykyk 💖

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --by <seconds> — extends the watchdog by <seconds>. default is 7200. yes bestie, seven thousand two hundred, that's the default, no cap ✨

and the common bkr options? those are described in the Options section of bkr(1), go check it out 🎀

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

non-zero on error, otherwise zero. simple as that 💀
