# NFD-Topology-Updater Commandline Flags

## Table of Contents

To quickly view available command line flags execute `nfd-topology-updater -help`. In a docker container:

    docker run registry.k8s.io/nfd/node-feature-discovery:v0.12.5 \
    nfd-topology-updater -help

### -h, -help

Print usage and exit.

### -version

Print version and exit.

### -config

The `-config` flag specifies the path of the nfd-topology-updater configuration file to use.

Default: /etc/kubernetes/node-feature-discovery/nfd-topology-updater.conf

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -config=/opt/nfd/nfd-topology-updater.conf

### -no-publish

The `-no-publish` flag disables all communication with the nfd-master, making it a "dry-run" flag for nfd-topology-updater. NFD-Topology-Updater runs resource hardware topology detection normally, but no CR requests are sent to nfd-master.

Default: false

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -no-publish

### -oneshot

The `-oneshot` flag causes nfd-topology-updater to exit after one pass of resource hardware topology detection.

Default: false

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -oneshot -no-publish

### -sleep-interval

The `-sleep-interval` specifies the interval between resource hardware topology re-examination (and CR updates). A non-positive value implies infinite sleep interval, i.e. no re-detection is done.

Default: 60s

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -sleep-interval=1h

### -watch-namespace

The `-watch-namespace` specifies the namespace to ensure that resource hardware topology examination only happens for the pods running in the specified namespace. Pods that are not running in the specified namespace are not considered during resource accounting. This is particularly useful for testing/debugging purpose. A "*" value would mean that all the pods would be considered during the accounting process.

Default: "*"

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -watch-namespace=rte

### -kubelet-config-uri

The `-kubelet-config-uri` specifies the path to the Kubelet's configuration. Note that the URi could either be a local host file or an HTTP endpoint.

Default: `https://${NODE_NAME}:10250/configz`

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -kubelet-config-uri=file:///var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml

### -api-auth-token-file

The `-api-auth-token-file` specifies the path to the api auth token file which is used to retrieve Kubelet's configuration from Kubelet secure port, only taking effect when `-kubelet-config-uri` is https. Note that this token file must bind to a role that has the `get` capability to `nodes/proxy` resources.

Default: `/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token`

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -token-file=/var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token

### -podresources-socket

The `-podresources-socket` specifies the path to the Unix socket where kubelet exports a gRPC service to enable discovery of in-use CPUs and devices, and to provide metadata for them.

Default: /host-var/lib/kubelet/pod-resources/kubelet.sock

Example:

    nfd-topology-updater -podresources-socket=/var/lib/kubelet/pod-resources/kubelet.sock
