NAME
       icegridnode - The IceGrid node server.


SYNOPSIS
       icegridnode [options]


DESCRIPTION
       An IceGrid node is a process that activates, monitors, and deactivates
       registered server processes. You can run any number of nodes in a
       domain, but typically there is one node per host. A node must be
       running on each host on which servers are activated automatically, and
       nodes cannot run without an IceGrid registry. The IceGrid node server
       is implemented by the icegridnode executable. If you wish to run a
       registry and node in one process, icegridnode is the executable you
       must use. Full documentation for icegridnode is available online at:
