RCCL(1)

💖 RCCL 💖

okay bestie, so this is RCCL(1) — the RAS client situation, and honestly? it's giving main character energy for your NCCL job. the command itself is rcclras, and it lives in section 1 of the manual. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

RCCL — the RCCL RAS client, periodt 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rcclras [OPTION]...

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, what does it even do? it queries the state of a running NCCL job. that's the whole vibe. one job, one state, and you're checking in on it like the nosy bestie you are 💖

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

here's the whole menu, no skips, no skipping the "boring" ones (there are none, they're all iconic):

• -f, --format=FMT — picks your output format: text or json. and if you just can't decide, it defaults to text ✨
• -h, --host=HOST — the host name or IP address of the RAS client socket of the NCCL job you're connecting to. if you say nothing, it's localhost 🏠
• -m, --monitor[=GROUPS] — monitor mode, aka the "refresh the page every two seconds" of Unix. it continuously watches for peer changes 👀
  • the optional GROUPS you can pass: lifecycle, trace, all, or combos like lifecycle,trace. default is lifecycle 🌈
• -p, --port=PORT — TCP port of the RAS client socket of the NCCL job. default is 28028 🔌
• -t, --timeout=SECS — the maximum time for the local NCCL process to wait for responses from other NCCL processes. default is 5 secs, and 0 disables the timeout entirely (yes, forever-waiting is a choice and it's yours 😭) ⏳
• -v, --verbose — turns up the verbosity level of the RAS output. more words, more lore 📢
• --help — prints this help and dips out 👋
• --version — prints the version number and exits. short and sweet 🍓

---

fr fr, that's everything — nothing hidden, nothing dropped, all the flags kept 💯
