LOCKERSH(1)	      User Contributed Perl Documentation	   LOCKERSH(1)

NAME
       lockersh	- Run a	command	under a	global lock

SYNOPSIS
	 lockersh [--dhost <host> --port <port>] --lock	<name> [args....]

DESCRIPTION
       Obtain a	global IPC::Locker lock	with the passed	name.

       When the	lock is	granted, run the arguments as a	command	in the
       foreground.  When the foreground	process	exits, release the lock, and
       return the executed command's exit status.

       This makes it very easy to insure only one copy of a program executes
       across a	clump:

	  lockersh --lock one_sleep_runs sleep 10

ARGUMENTS
       --dhost host
	   Hostname of lockerd server.	Defaults to IPCLOCKER_HOST environment
	   variable.

       --help
	   Displays this message and program version and exits.

       --lock lockname
	   Name	for the	lock.  This argument may be passed multiple times or
	   with	a colon	separator to allow one of multiple possible locks to
	   be selected.

       --locklist
	   Suppress normal operation, and instead print	a list of all
	   outstanding locks and their owners.

       --port port
	   Port	of pidstatd server on remote host.  Defaults IPCLOCKER_PORT
	   environment variable.

       --timeout
	   Set number of seconds before	wait for license will timeout.
	   Defaults to wait forever.

       --verbose
	   Print 'waiting for lock' and	similar	messages.

       --version
	   Displays program version and	exits.

	   Hostname of lockerd server, or colon	separated list including
	   backup servers.  Defaults to	localhost.

	   Port	number of lockerd server.  Defaults to 1751.
