Installation and Usage¶
Installation¶
To install the lvcgcnd systemd service type in a terminal:
$ make
$ sudo make install
The first command will install the Python package torosgcn
and a script lvcgcn
.
It will also create a lvcgcnd.service
file to create the systemctl daemon lvcgcnd
.
The second command needs root permissions.
It will copy the lvcgcnd.service
file to /etc/systemd/system
and it will also
copy a sample lvcgcn-conf.yaml
file to /etc/toros
(see section Configuration).
It is highly recommended (but not necessary) that you use a virtual environment when installing.
Usage¶
Usage of the lvcgcnd
daemon follow all of the rules for systemd
services.
For a full documentation of the systemd service, please refer to the official documentation.

If you want to check if lvcgcnd
whether is active and running or not:
