Command-line Tool Reference In order to use the CLI, you must provide your OpenStack username, password, tenant, and auth endpoint. Use the corresponding configuration options (``--os-username``, ``--os-password``, ``--os-project-id``, and ``--os-auth-url``) or set them in environment variables:: export OS_USERNAME=user export OS_PASSWORD=pass export OS_PROJECT_ID=c373706f891f48019483f8bd6503c54b export OS_AUTH_URL=http://auth.example.com:5000/v2.0 The command line tool will attempt to reauthenticate using your provided credentials for every request. You can override this behavior by manually supplying an auth token using ``--os-backup-url`` and ``--os-auth-token``. You can alternatively set these environment variables:: export OS_BACKUP_URL=http://freezer.example.org:9090/ export OS_AUTH_TOKEN=3bdc4d3a03f44e3d8377fa247b0ad155 Once you've configured your authentication parameters, you can run ``freezer help`` to see a complete listing of available commands. .. toctree:: details freezer
