<p>Chef-expanderctl is a management program that allows
you to get status information or change the logging
verbosity (without restarting). chef-expanderctl has
the following commands:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>chef-expanderctl help</strong>
prints usage.</li>
<li><strong>chef-expanderctl queue-depth</strong>
Shows the total number of messages in the queues.</li>
<li><strong>chef-expanderctl queue-status</strong>
Show the number of messages in each queue. This is mainly of use when
debugging a Chef Expander cluster.</li>
<li><strong>chef-expanderctl log-level LEVEL</strong>
Sets the log level on a running Chef Expander or cluster.
If you suspect that a worker process is stuck, as long as you are using
clustered operation, you can simply kill the worker process and it will
be restarted by the master process.</li>
</ul>
