.SH NAME
.B pbs 
\- Start, stop, restart, or get the PIDs of PBS daemons


.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pbs 
[start|stop|restart|status] 


.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B pbs
command starts, stops or restarts all PBS daemons on the local machine, or
reports the PIDs of all daemons when given the 
.I status
argument.  Does not affect other hosts.

You can start, stop, restart, or status the PBS daemons using the 
.B systemctl
command; see Starting and Stopping PBS in the PBS Professional Installation
and Upgrade Guide.

.B Caveats
.br
This command operates only on daemons that are marked as active
in pbs.conf.  For example, if PBS_START_MOM is set to 0 in the local
pbs.conf, this command will not operate on pbs_mom, and will not
start, stop, or restart pbs_mom.

This command is typically placed in /etc/init.d so that 
PBS starts up automatically.  

.B Required Privilege
.br
Root privilege is required to use this command.

.SH ARGUMENTS
