ArangoDB Server Options

Usage: arangod [<options>]

The database directory can be specified as positional (unnamed) first parameter:

arangod /path/to/datadir

Or explicitly as named parameter:

arangod --database.directory /path/to/datadir

All other parameters need to be passed as named parameters. That is two hyphens followed by the option name, an equals sign or a space and finally the parameter value. The value needs to be wrapped in double quote marks if the value contains whitespace. Extra whitespace around = is allowed:

arangod --database.directory = "/path with spaces/to/datadir"

See Configuration if you want to translate startup parameters to configuration files or learn more about startup options in general.

See Fetch Current Configuration Options if you want to query the arangod server for the current settings at runtime.
