.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBsosreport\fR generates a compressed tarball of debugging information

reps that will give them a more complete view of the overall system
status.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-l, \--list-plugins
This will list all available plugins showing which ones will be enabled by the current configuration. It will also show all plugin options which can be 
modified using the -k option (see below).

.B \-n, --skip-plugins PLUGNAME[,PLUGNAME]
Do not load specified plugin(s). To specify multiple plugins, separate them with a comma.
.TP
.B \-e, --enable-plugins PLUGNAME[,PLUGNAME]
Enable the specified plugin(s). To specify multiple plugins, separate them with a comma.
.TP
.B \-o, --only-plugins PLUGNAME[,PLUGNAME]
Enable the specified plugin(s) only (all other plugins should be disabled). To specify multiple plugins, separate them with a comma.
