.SH NAME
sos.conf \- sosreport configuration
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
sosreport uses a configuration file at /etc/sos.conf.
.SH PARAMETERS
.sp
There are three sections in the sosreport configuration file:
general, plugins and tunables. Options are set using 'ini'-style
\fBname = value\fP pairs. Disabling/enabling a boolean option
is done the same way like on command line (e.g. process.lsof=off).

Some options accept a comma separated list of values.

Using options that dont expect a value (like all-logs or no-report)
will result in enabling those options, regardless of value set.

Sections are parsed in the ordering:
.br
- \fB[general]\fP
.br
- \fB[plugins]\fP (disable)
.br
- \fB[plugins]\fP (enable)
.br
- \fB[tunables]\fP

.TP

              are not supported.
.TP
