Displays the help message
Displays version information
Reads configuration from FILE
Reads client configuration from FILE (for cluster interconnect)

Directory to contain persistent data generated by the broker
Don't use a data directory. No persistent configuration will be loaded or stored
Tells the broker to listen on PORT
Sets the broker thread pool size
Sets the maximum allowed connections
Sets the connection backlog limit for the server socket
Enable Management
Enable broadcast of management information over QMF v2
Enable broadcast of management information over QMF v1
Management Publish Interval
Interval between attempts to purge any expired messages from queues
Enable authentication, if disabled all incoming connections will be trusted
Use the given realm when performing authentication
Default maximum size for queues (in bytes)
Set TCP_NODELAY on TCP connections
Only accept connections that are encrypted
URL to send as 'known-hosts' to clients ('none' implies empty list)
gets sasl config info from nonstandard location
Sets the maximum message rate per session (0=unlimited)

Sets the maximum wait time to initialize the daemon. If the daemon fails to initialize, prints an error and returns 1
Prints the daemon's process ID to stdout and returns 0 if the daemon is running, otherwise returns 1
Tells the daemon to shut down

ACL Options

The policy file to load from, loaded from data dir

QPID_<option>

There is an environment variable for each option.

The environment variable is the option name in uppercase, prefixed with QPID_ and '.' or '-' are replaced with '_'. Environment settings are over-ridden by command line settings. For example:
