You start a HAM by running the
ham
utility at
the command line:
ham
The ham utility has these command-line options:
- -?|h
- Display usage message
- -d
- Disable internal verbosity.
- -f
- Log verbose output to a file (default is stderr).
- -t none|relative|absolute|shortabs
- Specify the timestamping method. The default is relative.
- -v
- Set verbosity level — extra -v's increase verbosity.
- -Vn
- Set verbosity level — use a number to specify the level (e.g., -V3).
When a HAM starts, it also starts the Guardian process for
itself.
Note:
You must start
ham with its full path or with the
PATH variable set to include the path to
ham as a component.
You must be root in order to start or stop a HAM.
