From 34f853950685e4e7ab38f30fc3f17a6beac13349 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Magnus Henoch Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2016 14:40:39 +0100 Subject: Add -start_epmd command line option Add a command line option that lets you disable automatic starting of epmd when starting a distributed node. This differs from the undocumented setting -no_epmd, in that it does not affect the starting of an erl_epmd process within erl_distribution: the newly started node will expect an epmd instance to have been started previously. --- erts/doc/src/erl.xml | 18 +++++++++++++++++- erts/etc/common/erlexec.c | 21 ++++++++++++++++++++- 2 files changed, 37 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/erts/doc/src/erl.xml b/erts/doc/src/erl.xml index 1bbde7f1e0..e63928ddb0 100644 --- a/erts/doc/src/erl.xml +++ b/erts/doc/src/erl.xml @@ -338,7 +338,8 @@ net_kernel(3).
