+### Displaying scheduler-docker-local reports for an app
+
+You can get a report about the app's scheduler-docker-local configuration using the `scheduler-docker-local:report` command:
+
+```shell
+dokku scheduler-docker-local:report
+```
+
+```
+=====> node-js-app scheduler-docker-local information
+       Scheduler docker local computed init process:          true
+       Scheduler docker local computed parallel schedule count:1
+       Scheduler docker local global init process:            true
+       Scheduler docker local global parallel schedule count: 1
+       Scheduler docker local init process:
+       Scheduler docker local parallel schedule count:
+```
+
+You can run the command for a specific app also.
+
+```shell
+dokku scheduler-docker-local:report node-js-app
+```
+
+You can pass flags which will output only the value of the specific information you want. For example:
+
+```shell
+dokku scheduler-docker-local:report node-js-app --scheduler-docker-local-computed-init-process
+```
+
+When run against `--global`, only the global keys are reported.
+
+```shell
+dokku scheduler-docker-local:report --global
+```
+
+The available keys are:
+
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-init-process`: the raw per-app init-process value (empty when unset).
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-computed-init-process`: the effective init-process value, computed as the per-app value if set, otherwise the global value, otherwise `true`.
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-global-init-process`: the global init-process value (defaults to `true`).
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-parallel-schedule-count`: the raw per-app parallel-schedule-count value (empty when unset).
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-computed-parallel-schedule-count`: the effective parallel-schedule-count value, computed as the per-app value if set, otherwise the global value, otherwise `1`.
+- `--scheduler-docker-local-global-parallel-schedule-count`: the global parallel-schedule-count value (defaults to `1`).
+
+The report may also be emitted as JSON using `--format json`, which is useful for external tooling that needs to distinguish a value set on the app from one that is defaulting.
+
+```shell
+dokku scheduler-docker-local:report node-js-app --format json
+```
+
