.SH "NAME"
heat-db-setup \- Setup and configure the Heat database
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
heat-db-setup <platform_type>
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBheat-db-setup\fR script creates the heat database on the system,
using MYSQL as a backend database.  The script works on either RPM or DEB
based distributions.  If the MYSQL server is not present, the user will
be prompted to install it.  If the MYSQL server is not running, the user
will be prompted to start it.  Once MYSQL is started, the appropriate
SQL commands will be run to instantiate the database on the system.

.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\fB\platform_type\fR
.RS 4
This required option can be either rpm or deb, which will use the appropriate
platform specific tools and packaging to instantiate the database.

.PP
\fB\--help\fR
.RS 4
Print usage information.

.PP
\fB\--password <pw>\fR
.RS 4
Specify the password for the 'heat' MySQL user that  will use to connect to
the 'heat' MySQL database.  By default, the password 'heat' will be used.

.PP
\fB\--yes\fR
.RS 4
In cases where the script would normally ask for confirmation before doing
something, such as installing mysql-server, just assume yes.  This is useful
if you want to run the script non-interactively.

.SH "BUGS"
.sp
Since Heat is in active development, occasionally the database may suffer
corruption during master updates.  In this case, the heat-db-drop tool can
be used to drop the database tables and start from scratch.  This application
is only shipped in the source tarball, since it will be unnecessary when Heat
is production quality and too heavyweight for a production deployment.
