       -C, --confdb directory
              Use a binary configuration database directory  (default  is  /var/lib/knot/confdb).
              The  default  configuration  database,  if  exists, has a preference to the default
              configuration file.

       -m, --max-conf-size MiB
              Set maximum size of the configuration database (default is 500 MiB,  maximum  10000
              MiB).

   Signals
       If  the  knotd  process receives a SIGHUP signal, it reloads its configuration and reopens
       the log files, if they are configured. When knotd recieves a SIGUSR1  signal,  it  reloads
       all configured zones. Upon receiving a SIGINT signal, knotd exits.

       Exit status of 0 means successful operation. Any other exit status indicates an error.
