NAME

       uuid-config - OSSP uuid API build utility

VERSION

       OSSP uuid 1.6.2 (04-Jul-2008)

SYNOPSIS

       uuid-config [--help] [--version] [--all] [--prefix] [--exec-prefix] [--bindir] [--libdir] [--includedir] [--mandir] [--datadir] [--acdir]
       [--cflags] [--ldflags] [--libs]

DESCRIPTION

       The uuid-config program is a little helper utility for easy configuring and building applications based on the uuid(3) library.	It can be
       used to query the C compiler and linker flags which are required to correctly compile and link the application against the uuid(3) library.

OPTIONS

       uuid-config accepts the following options:

       --help
	 Prints the short usage information.

       --version
	 Prints the version number and date of the installed uuid(3) library.

       --all
	 Forces the output of all flags, that is, including extra flags which are not OSSP uuid specific.

       --prefix
	 Prints the installation prefix of architecture independent files

       --exec-prefix
	 Prints the installation prefix of architecture dependent files.

       --bindir
	 Prints the installation directory of binaries.

       --libdir
	 Prints the installation directory of libraries.

       --includedir
	 Prints the installation directory of include headers.

       --mandir
	 Prints the installation directory of manual pages.

       --datadir
	 Prints the installation directory of shared data.

       --acdir
	 Prints the installation directory of autoconf data.

       --cflags
	 Prints the C compiler flags which are needed to compile the uuid(3)-based application. The output is usually added to the CFLAGS
	 uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

       --ldflags
	 Prints the linker flags (-L) which are needed to link the application with the uuid(3) library. The output is usually added to the
	 LDFLAGS uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

       --libs
	 Prints the library flags (-l) which are needed to link the application with the C uuid(3) library. The output is usually added to the
	 LIBS uuidiable of the applications Makefile.

EXAMPLE

	CC	= cc
	CFLAGS	= -O `uuid-config --cflags`
	LDFLAGS = `uuid-config --ldflags`
	LIBS	= -lm `uuid-config --libs`

	all: foo
	foo: foo.o
	    $(CC) $(LDFLAGS) -o foo foo.o $(LIBS)
	foo.o: foo.c
	    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c foo.c

NAME

       fs_uuid - Prints the uuid of the client or generates a new one

SYNOPSIS

       fs uuid [-generate] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       fs uuid prints the current UUID of an OpenAFS client.  It can optionally force the generation of a new UUID, if needed.	The client UUID is
       used by the fileserver to differentiate clients with the same IP address.

CAUTIONS

       The fs uuid command is only available in OpenAFS versions after 1.4.5 and 1.5.8.  The behavior differs slightly between versions.  In
       OpenAFS 1.4.5 and later, the -generate option is required and the UUID for the client machine is never printed.	OpenAFS versions 1.5.8 and
       later will print the UUID.

OPTIONS

       -generate
	   Generates a new UUID for the cache manager.	This is useful if two clients share the same UUID (if systems were cloned incorrectly, for
	   example).  -generate is optional in OpenAFS versions 1.5.8 and later, but it is required in OpenAFS versions 1.4.5 and later.

       -help
	   Prints the online help for this command.  All other valid options are ignored.

OUTPUT

       fs uuid prints out the current UUID for the client or the new UUID if the -generate option is passed to it.

EXAMPLES

       There are only two ways to invoke fs uuid under 1.5.8 and later:

	  % fs uuid
	  UUID: 8ac66f9308a8e-47d7-80f7-50d0040cddc2

	  % fs uuid -generate
	  New UUID: 436bd660-1720-429508e470cff38f5c6fb0

       Here is the only way to invoke fs uuid under OpenAFS 1.4.5 and later:

	  % fs uuid -generate
	  New uuid generated.
