Configuration file settings

Configuration file options

The .conf file includes a number of options exclusively for the init script. The rest of the options are exactly the same as the ones that go on the command line to the RethinkDB server. For more details about these options run rethinkdb help.

The configuration file’s location depends on the startup system your distribution uses. A configuration file may also be specified on the command line with the --config-file option.

Format

A sample .conf file is available with full comments. (It may already be installed on your distribution as default.conf.sample.)
