NAME¶

DESCRIPTION¶

This command will stash away the system, user and spec configuration, i.e. it releases all mountpoints and reset Elektra to a clean state. Afterwards a timestamp which can be used to restore everything will be printed.

The backup will be done in the /var/tmp directory, so make sure the backup is not deleted.

EXAMPLES¶

kdb set user/x foo
#>
#> Create a new key user/x with string "foo"
kdb mount a.ini /a
kdb mount
#> a.ini on /a with name /a
#> none on system/info/elektra/constants with name system/info/elektra/constants
