Usage

usage: memsql-ops start [--settings-file SETTINGS_FILE] [-f]
                        [-i INTERFACE | -h HOST | --use-hostname] [-P PORT]
                        [--ssl-port SSL_PORT] [-u USER] [--async]
                        [--ignore-root-error]

Start the MemSQL Ops agent.

optional arguments:
  --settings-file SETTINGS_FILE
                        A path to a MemSQL Ops settings.conf file. If not set,
                        we will use the file in the same directory as the
                        MemSQL Ops binary.
  -f, --foreground      Run the agent in the foreground.
  -i INTERFACE, --interface INTERFACE
                        Bind the agent to the specified network interface.
                        Default is the first non-loopback interface.
  -h HOST, --host HOST  Bind the agent to the specified host. This overrides
                        other methods such as interface and automated
                        guessing.
  --use-hostname        If true, we will bind this agent to the machine's
                        hostname.
  -P PORT, --port PORT  Bind the agent to the specified port. By default we
                        will use port 9000.
  --ssl-port SSL_PORT   Bind the HTTPS web UI to the specified port (if an SSL
                        certificate has been added). By default we will use
                        port 9001.
  -u USER, --user USER  Run the agent as the specified user.
  --async               If true, we will return immediately without waiting
                        for the agent to be fully started. This has no effect
                        if --foreground is specified.
  --ignore-root-error   If set, MemSQL Ops will start even if we previously
                        started it with root privileges and it is now being
                        started by a non-root user.
