RPC.CMSD(1m)

💖 rpc.cmsd — calendar manager service daemon 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the rpc.cmsd(user cmd) page — yes, the manual name is literally user cmd, and we’re gonna get through this together. No cap, this one’s short and sweet. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

rpc.cmsd — calendar manager service daemon, and honestly that’s the whole mood. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

rpc.cmsd [-d] [-s]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

rpc.cmsd is a small database manager for appointment and resource-scheduling data. Its primary client is dtcm, a productivity tool included with CDE. It’s giving “calendar keeper energy,” fr fr. 💅

Normally, rpc.cmsd is invoked by inetd(1m) when a dtcm request is received. So it’s not out here trying to be the main character on its own — it gets called up when needed. 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

The following options are available:

• -d — Enables debugging output. Debug girlies, rise. 🔥
• -s — Runs rpc.cmsd in the foreground. This option should be used when rpc.cmsd is invoked manually for debugging purposes. Think of it as the “stay right here and let me watch” option. 👀

🌈 OPERANDS 🌈

None. Zero operands. Nada. The operand section is empty and thriving. 🫶

🍓 STDIN 🍓

Not used. It’s simply not taking keyboard input, bestie. 🙈

🧚 INPUT FILES 🧚

The database format used by the rpc.cmsd is private. Private means private — no peeking behind the curtain. 💖

💜 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 💜

None. ✨

⭐ RESOURCES ⭐

None. 🎀

🦋 ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS 🦋

None. 💅

🌸 STDOUT 🌸

When the -d option is used, rpc.cmsd writes the debugging information to stdout. So if you asked for debug mode, the tea gets spilled to stdout. ☕

🌸 STDOUT 🌸

None. Yes, this section really does show up again. We keep the facts exactly where they were. 😭

🔥 OUTPUT FILES 🔥

None. 🫶

👑 EXTENDED DESCRIPTION 👑

None. The extended description is giving minimalism. ✨

💀 EXIT STATUS 💀

When the process exits, rpc.cmsd exits with the status of the exited child. Otherwise, the following exit values are returned:

• 0 — Normal termination. A zero exit status means rpc.cmsd has received a HUP signal, and terminated normally. Slay, graceful exit. 🎀
• -1 — Abnormal termination. Permissions on the database file or directory were incorrect. Perms were not it, bestie. 💀
• 1 — RPC memory management errors have prevented successful operation, a socket operation failed in a nonrecoverable way, or could not create a udp service. That’s a whole pile of “ouch.” 😭
• 2 — Could not create a TLI connection. 🦋
• 3 — Could not register the service. Service registration said “no thanks.” 💅

💖 CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS 💖

The rpc.cmsd utility takes the standard action for all signals. Standard action, standard behavior, no dramatic extra plot twists. ✨

🌟 APPLICATION USAGE 🌟

To run rpc.cmsd in standalone mode, the user must be root. Root privileges required — no pretending otherwise. 👑

🫶 EXAMPLES 🫶

None. No examples here, so we’re keeping it mysterious. 🎀
