💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to ZMDC(1) — it's a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's all about:

zmdc.pl — the ZoneMinder Daemon Control script 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

zmdc.pl {command} [daemon [options]]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This script is literally the gateway for controlling the various ZoneMinder daemons. All starting, stopping and restarting goes through here. No cap.

On the first invocation it starts up a server which subsequently records what's running and what's not. Every other invocation just connects to that server and passes instructions to it. It's giving main character energy for your daemons fr fr 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • {command} — One of startup|shutdown|status|check|logrot or start|stop|restart|reload|version.
  • [daemon [options]] — Daemon name and options, required for the second group of commands.
🫶 quick vibe check: that second group is start|stop|restart|reload|version, and it needs the daemon name and options. Don't forget them, bestie 😭

and that's the whole page, periodt 💖 this was ZMDC(1) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, brought to you by perl v5.40.1 on 2026-02-01 ✨ slay, bye 👑🌈
