The Start Instruction Format

drwcsd-proxy [<switches>] [<commands>] [<command_arguments>]

Allowed Switches

Crossplatform Switches

•--сonsole=yes|no—run the Proxy server in the interactive mode. At this, the Proxy server operation log is written to the console.

Default: no.

•--etc-root=<path>—path to the configuration files directory (drwcsd-proxy.conf, drwcsd.proxy.auth and etc.).

Default: $var/etc

•--home=<path>—path to the Proxy server installation directory.

Default: $exe-dir/

•--log-root=<path>—path to the directory with the Proxy server operation log files.

Default: $var/log

•--pool-size=<N>—pool size for clients connections.

Default: core number of the computer with the Proxy server installed (not less than 2).

•--rotate=<N><f>,<M><u>—Proxy server log rotation mode, where:

Parameter	Description
<N>	Total number of log files (including current and archive).
<f>	Log files storing format, possible values: •z (gzip)—compress files, used by default, •p (plain)—do not compress files.
<M>	Log file size or rotation time, depending on the <u> value;
<u>	Unit measure, possible values: •to set rotation by log file size: ▫k—Kb, ▫m—Mb, ▫g—Gb. •to set rotation by time: ▫H—hours, ▫D—days, ▫W—weeks.

If rotation by time is set, synchronisation performs independently on command launch time: the H value means synchronisation with the beginning of an hour, D—with beginning of a day, W—with beginning of a week (00:00 on Monday) according to the multiplicity specified in the <u> parameter.

Initial reference point—January 01, year 01 AD, UTC+0.

Default is 10,10m, which means storing of 10 files of 10 megabytes each, use compression.

•--trace=yes|no—enable detailed logging of Proxy server calls. Available only if the Proxy server supports calls stack tracing (if an exception occurs, stack is written to the log).
