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.

using a custom port need to be started with the environment variable DLT_DAEMON_TCP_PORT set ap‐
propriately.

file /etc/dlt-log-levels.conf is loaded.
