DESCRIPTION
       kea-admin  is  a	shell script that offers database maintenance. In par-
       ticular,	it features database initialization, database  version	check-
       ing, and	database schema	upgrading.

ARGUMENTS
       command
	      Specifies	the command to be issued to the	servers. It can	be one
	      of the following:

	      db-init
		     Initializes  a new	database schema. This is useful	during
		     a new Kea installation. The database  is  initialized  to
		     the  latest version supported by the version of the soft-
		     ware being	installed.

	      db-version
		     Reports the database backend version number. This is  not
		     necessarily  equal	 to  the  Kea  version number, as each
		     backend has its own versioning scheme.

	      db-upgrade
		     Conducts a	database schema	upgrade. This is  useful  when
		     upgrading Kea.

	      lease-dump
		     Dumps  the	 contents  of the lease	database (for MySQL or
		     PostgreSQL	backends) to a	CSV  (comma-separated  values)
		     text  file.  (Support  for	the Cassandra backend has been
		     deprecated.)  The first line of  the  file	 contains  the
		     column  names. This can be	used as	a way to switch	from a
		     database backend to a memfile backend.  It	 can  also  be
		     used as a diagnostic tool,	as it provides a portable form
		     of	 the  lease  data. There are other mandatory arguments
		     that must be used together	with this command:  either  -4
		     or	 -6  must be specified,	and either -o or --output must
		     be	provided.

	      lease-upload
		     Uploads leases from a CSV (comma-separated	 values)  text
		     file  to  a MySQL or a PostgreSQL lease database. The CSV
		     file needs	to be in  memfile  format.   There  are	 other
		     mandatory	arguments that must be used together with this
		     command: either -4	or -6 must be specified, and either -i
		     or	--input	must be	provided.

	      stats-recount
		     Recounts lease statistics for a MySQL or PostgreSQL data-
		     base.

       backend
	      Specifies	the backend type. Currently allowed backends are: mem-
	      file, mysql, and pgsql; cql has been deprecated.

       -h|--host hostname
	      Specifies	the hostname when connecting to	a database.   The  de-
	      fault value is localhost.

       -i|--input input_file
	      Specifies	 the  CSV  (comma-separated values) text file with the
	      leases to	be uploaded; required for lease-upload.

       -P|--port port
	      Specifies	the port when connecting to a database.	If not	speci-
	      fied, the	default	value chosen by	the database client is used.

       -u|--user username
	      Specifies	 the  username when connecting to a database.  The de-
	      fault value is keatest.

       -p|--password password
	      Specifies	the password when connecting to	a database.   If  only
	      -p  or --password	is given, the user is prompted for a password.
	      If not specified at all, the  KEA_ADMIN_DB_PASSWORD  environment
	      variable	is  checked for	a value	and used if it exists.	Other-
	      wise the default value of	1234 is	used.

       -n|--name database-name
	      Specifies	the name of the	database to connect  to.  The  default
	      value is keatest.

       -d|--directory script-directory
	      Specifies	 the  override	scripts	directory. That	script is used
	      during upgrades, database	initialization,	and possibly other op-
	      erations.	 The default value is (prefix)/share/kea/scripts/.

       -o|--output output_file
	      Specifies	the file to which the lease data will be  dumped.  Re-
	      quired for lease-dump.

       -v|--version
	      Displays the Kea version.

       -V     Displays the extended Kea	version.

       -4     Directs  kea-admin to lease-dump the DHCPv4 leases. Incompatible
	      with the -6 option.

       -6     Directs kea-admin	to lease-dump the DHCPv6 leases.  Incompatible
	      with the -4 option.

       -x|--extra
	      Specifies	an extra argument to pass to the database command tool
	      e.g.   to	 invoke	mysql with the --ssl argument. This can	be re-
	      peated to	pass more than one argument. Quotes are	not preserved.
	      Avoid commands containing	spaces.

       -y|--yes
	      Assume yes on overwriting	temporary files.

DOCUMENTATION
       Kea comes with an extensive Kea	Administrator  Reference  Manual  that
       covers all aspects of running the Kea software -	compilation, installa-
       tion,  configuration,  configuration  examples, and much	more. Kea also
       features	a Kea Messages Manual, which lists all possible	 messages  Kea
       can print with a	brief description for each of them. Both documents are
       available in various formats (.txt, .html, .pdf)	with the Kea distribu-
       tion. The Kea documentation is available	at
	<https://kea.readthedocs.io> .

       Kea  source  code is documented in the Kea Developer's Guide, available
       at  <https://reports.kea.isc.org/dev_guide/> .

       The Kea project website is available at	<https://kea.isc.org> .

MAILING	LISTS AND SUPPORT
       There are two public mailing  lists  available  for  the	 Kea  project.
       kea-users (kea-users at lists.isc.org) is intended for Kea users, while
       kea-dev	(kea-dev  at  lists.isc.org)  is  intended for Kea developers,
       prospective contributors, and other  advanced  users.  Both  lists  are
       available at
	<https://lists.isc.org>	 .  The	community provides best-effort support
       on both of those	lists.

       ISC provides professional support for Kea services. See
	<https://www.isc.org/kea/>  for	details.
