 5.5.3 MySQL Instance Manager Command Options
 --------------------------------------------
 
 The MySQL Instance Manager supports a number of command line options.
 For a brief listing, invoke `mysqlmanager' with the -help option.
 
 `mysqlmanager' supports the following options:
 
    * -help, -?
 
      Display a help message and exit.
 
    * -bind-address=IP
 
      The IP address to bind to.
 
    * -default-mysqld-path=PATH
 
      On Unix, the pathname of the MySQL Server binary, if no path was
      provided in the instance section. Example:
      -default-mysqld-path=/usr/sbin/mysqld
 
    * -defaults-file=FILE_NAME
 
      Read Instance Manager and MySQL Server settings from the given
      file. All configuration changes by the Instance Manager will be
      made to this file. This must be the first option on the command
      line if it is used.
 
    * -install
 
      On Windows, install Instance Manager as a Windows service.  This
      option was added in MySQL 5.0.11.
 
    * -log=FILE_NAME
 
      The path to the IM log file. This is used with the
      `--run-as-service' option.
 
    * -monitoring-interval=SECONDS
 
      The interval in seconds for monitoring instances. The default
      value is 20 seconds. Instance Manager tries to connect to each
      monitored instance to check whether it is alive/not hanging. In
      the case of a failure, IM performs several attempts to restart the
      instance. The `nonguarded' option in the appropriate instance
      section disables this behavior for a particular instance.
 
    * -passwd, -P
 
      Prepare an entry for the password file and exit.
 
    * -password-file=FILE_NAME
 
      Look for the Instance Manager users and passwords in this file.
      The default file is `/etc/mysqlmanager.passwd'.
 
    * -pid-file=FILE_NAME
 
      The process ID file to use. By default, this file is named
      `mysqlmanager.pid'.
 
    * -port=PORT_NUM
 
      The TCP/IP port number to use for incoming connections.  (The
      default port number assigned by IANA is 2273).
 
    * -print-defaults
 
      Print the current defaults and exit. This must be the first option
      on the command line if it is used.
 
    * -remove
 
      On Windows, removes Instance Manager as a Windows service.  This
      assumes that Instance Manager has been run with -install
      previously. This option was added in MySQL 5.0.11.
 
    * -run-as-service
 
      Daemonize and start the angel process. The angel process is simple
      and unlikely to crash. It will restart the Instance Manager itself
      in case of a failure.
 
    * -socket=PATH
 
      On Unix, the socket file to use for incoming connections.  By
      default, the file is named `/tmp/mysqlmanager.sock'.
 
    * -standalone
 
      On Windows, run Instance Manager in standalone mode. This option
      was added in MySQL 5.0.13.
 
    * -user=USER_NAME
 
      Username to start and run the `mysqlmanager' under. It is
      recommended to run `mysqlmanager' under the same user account used
      to run the `mysqld' server.  (`User' in this context refers to a
      system login account, not a MySQL user listed in the grant tables.)
 
    * -version, -V
 
      Output version information and exit.
 
    * -wait-timeout=N
 
      The number of seconds to wait for activity on a connection befoe
      closing it. The default is 28800 seconds (8 hours).
 
      This option was added in MySQL 5.0.19. Before that, the timeout is
      30 seconds and cannot be changed.
