KSPLICE-APPLY(8) Ksplice KSPLICE-APPLY(8) NAME
ksplice-apply - Apply an on-disk Ksplice update to the running kernel SYNOPSIS
ksplice-apply [OPTIONS] {UPDATE_TARBALL | UPDATE_TREE} DESCRIPTION
ksplice-apply takes as input a Ksplice update, as generated by ksplice-create(8), and it applies the update to the running binary kernel. The update may be supplied in the form of a tarball or an unpacked tree. The update is required to have been generated for the running kernel's version. OPTIONS
--debug Applies the update with debugging output enabled. Recommended only for debugging. --debugfile=filename Sets the location where debugging output should be saved. Implies --debug. --partial Applies the update only to those modules which are loaded. Any modules patched by the update that are not loaded are ignored (without this option, Ksplice aborts if any modules patched by the update are not loaded). --raw-errors Print only raw error information designed to be machine-readable on standard error (standard output is still intended to be human- readable). If ksplice-apply fails due to an error from the Ksplice kernel modules, the first line on standard error will be a Ksplice abort code (see the Ksplice source code for documentation on these codes). Further lines will vary depending on the abort code. If ksplice-apply fails for any other reason, it will output the line "OTHER ", followed by a human-readable failure message, to standard error.

IPTABLES-APPLY(8) iptables 1.6.1 IPTABLES-APPLY(8) NAME
iptables-apply - a safer way to update iptables remotely SYNOPSIS
iptables-apply [-hV] [-t timeout] [-w savefile] {[rulesfile]|-c [runcmd]} DESCRIPTION
iptables-apply will try to apply a new rulesfile (as output by iptables-save, read by iptables-restore) or run a command to configure iptables and then prompt the user whether the changes are okay. If the new iptables rules cut the existing connection, the user will not be able to answer affirmatively. In this case, the script rolls back to the previous working iptables rules after the timeout expires. Successfully applied rules can also be written to savefile and later used to roll back to this state. This can be used to implement a store last good configuration mechanism when experimenting with an iptables setup script: iptables-apply -w /etc/network/iptables.up.rules -c /etc/network/iptables.up.run When called as ip6tables-apply, the script will use ip6tables-save/-restore and IPv6 default values instead. Default value for rulesfile is '/etc/network/iptables.up.rules'. OPTIONS
-t seconds, --timeout seconds Sets the timeout in seconds after which the script will roll back to the previous ruleset (default: 10). -w savefile, --write savefile Specify the savefile where successfully applied rules will be written to (default if empty string is given: /etc/network/iptables.up.rules). -c runcmd, --command runcmd Run command runcmd to configure iptables instead of applying a rulesfile (default: /etc/network/iptables.up.run). -h, --help Display usage information. -V, --version Display version information.
