🌸 NAME 🌸

wwctl-configure-tftp β€” Manage and initialize TFTP πŸ¦‹

like... bestie. she manages AND initializes. multitasking queen. periodt.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

wwctl configure tftp [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. wwctl configure tftp plus whatever options you feel like adding πŸ™ˆ


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so real talk: TFTP is a dependent service of Warewulf β€” it literally cannot do its little thing without Warewulf, they're giving codependent besties fr fr.

this tool will enable the tftp services on your Warewulf master. so if tftp is asleep, this is the one that knocks on her door and is like "girl. wake up. you're on." ⭐

no cap, that's the entire job. simple, effective, slay.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -h, --help[=false] β€” help for tftp πŸ’– you get the help text. that's it. that's the option.
  • -s, --show[=false] β€” Show configuration (don't update) πŸ‘€ note the parenthetical, bestie: this one doesn't update anything, it just shows you the configuration. look, don't touch. window shopping energy. 🫢

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

your fave options got handed down from the parent command, and honestly? generational excellence πŸ‘‘

  • -d, --debug[=false] β€” Run with debugging messages enabled. πŸ”₯ turn this on and the tool gets real chatty about what's going on internally.
  • -v, --verbose[=false] β€” Run with increased verbosity. πŸ’¬ more talking. more words. more ✨context✨.
  • --warewulfconf="" β€” Set the warewulf configuration file πŸ—‚οΈ point her at the config file you want her to use. the default is an empty string, "", which is exactly what it looks like: nothing in there.
