NAME
rescanplugins - Notifies xcatd to rescan the plugin directory
SYNOPSIS
rescanplugins
rescanplugins [-h | --help]
rescanplugins [-v | --version]
rescanplugins [-s | --servicenodes]
DESCRIPTION
rescanplugins notifies the xcatd daemon to rescan the plugin directory and update its internal command handlers hash. This command should be used when plugins have been added or removed from the xCAT plugin directory (/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin) or if the contents of the handled_commands subroutine in an existing plugin has changed.
If rescanplugins is called as a subrequest from another command, the xcatd command handlers hash changes will not be available to that command’s process. Only subsequent command calls will see the updates.
OPTIONS
-h|--help
Displays the usage message.
-v|--version

-s|--servicenodes
Process the rescanplugins on the management node and on all service nodes. The rescanplugins command will be sent to the xcatd daemon on all nodes defined in the servicenode table. The default is to only run on the management node.
EXAMPLES
