\fB-P\fR[\fIpidfile\fR], \fB--pidfile\fR[\fB=\fIpidfile\fR]
|
|
Causes a file (by default, \fB\*(PN.pid\fR) to be created indicating
|
|
the PID of the running process. If \fIpidfile\fR is not specified, or
|
|
if it does not begin with \fB/\fR, then it is created in
|
|
\fB@RUNDIR@\fR.

.TP
|
|
\fB-f\fR, \fB--force\fR
|
|
By default, when \fB-P\fR or \fB--pidfile\fR is specified and the
|
|
specified pidfile already exists and is locked by a running process,
|
|
\fB\*(PN\fR refuses to start. Specify \fB-f\fR or \fB--force\fR
|
|
to cause it to instead overwrite the pidfile.
|
|
|
|
When \fB-P\fR or \fB--pidfile\fR is not specified, this option has no
|
|
effect.
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB-D\fR, \fB--detach\fR
|
|
Causes \fB\*(PN\fR to detach itself from the foreground session and
|
|
run as a background process.
