NAME

       dlt-daemon - Diagnostic Log and Trace daemon

SYNOPSIS

       dlt-daemon [-h] [-d] [-c filename] [-t directory] [-p port] [-a filename]

DESCRIPTION

       The  DLT  daemon  is  the  central  place where logs and traces are gathered from different applications,
       stored temporarily or permanently and transferred to a DLT client application, which can run directly  on
       the COVESA system or more likely on a external tester device.

   OPTIONS
       -h     Display a short help text.

       -d     Daemonize, needed in System V init systems.

       -c     Load  an  alternative  configuration  file.   By  default  the configuration file /etc/dlt.conf is
              loaded.

       -t     Directory for local fifo and user-pipes (Default: /tmp).  Applications wanting  to  connect  to  a
              daemon  using a custom directory need to be started with the environment variable DLT_PIPE_DIR set
              appropriately.

       -p     Port to monitor for incoming requests (Default: 3490) Applications wanting to connect to a  daemon
              using  a  custom port need to be started with the environment variable DLT_DAEMON_TCP_PORT set ap‐
              propriately.

       -a     Load an alternative configuration for app id log level defaults.  By  default,  the  configuration
              file /etc/dlt-log-levels.conf is loaded.

       Start DLT daemon with own configuration: dlt-daemon -c ~/my-dlt-configuration.cfg

       Start DLT daemon with custom pipes directory: dlt-daemon -t ~/dlt_pipes
