Scalable and extensible, Icinga 2 can monitor large, complex environments across multiple locations.

    Specify the log level for the console log, default is information.

-X, --script-debugger
    Enables the script debugger. When an exception occurs or the 'debugger' keyword is encountered in a user script Icinga 2 launches the script debugger that allows the user to debug the script.

  daemon options
The CLI command daemon provides the functionality to start/stop Icinga 2. Furthermore it provides the configuration validation.

-c, --config arg
    Using this option you can specify one or more configuration files. Config files are processed in the order they are specified on the command-line.

    When no configuration file is specified and the --no-config is not used, Icinga 2 automatically falls back to using the configuration file ConfigDir + /icinga2.conf (where ConfigDir is usually /etc/icinga2).

-z, --noconfig
    Start without a configuration file.

-C, --validate
    This option can be used to check if your configuration files contain errors. If any errors are found the exit status is 1, otherwise 0 is returned.

-e, --errorlog arg
    Log fatal errors to the specified log file (only works in combination with --daemonize).

-d, --daemonize
    Detach from the controlling terminal.
