DESCRIPTION
searched for configuration files. When it's not specified, _both_
default directories are searched for configuration files.
-If the input path is a directory, then if 'SESSION' is specified, the
-tracing session configuration named 'SESSION' is searched in all the
-files of this directory and loaded if found. If 'SESSION' is not
-specified, the option:--all option is implicit: all the tracing session
-configurations found in all the files in this directory are loaded.
+If the input path is a *directory*, then:
-If the input path is a file, then if 'SESSION' is specified, the tracing
-session configuration named 'SESSION' is searched in this file and
-loaded if found. If 'SESSION' is not specified, the option:--all option
-is implicit: all the tracing session configurations found in this file
-are loaded.
+* If 'SESSION' is specified, the tracing session configuration named
+ 'SESSION' is searched for in all the files of this directory and
+ loaded if found.
+* If 'SESSION' is not specified, the option:--all option is implicit:
+ all the tracing session configurations found in all the files in this
+ directory are loaded.
-By default, existing tracing sessions are not overwritten when loading;
+If the input path is a *file*, then:
+
+* If 'SESSION' is specified, the tracing session configuration named
+ 'SESSION' is searched for in this file and loaded if found.
+* If 'SESSION' is not specified, the option:--all option is implicit:
+ all the tracing session configurations found in this file are loaded.
+
+Aspects of the loaded configurations can be overridden at load time
+using the option:--override-url and option:--override-name options.
+
+By default, existing tracing sessions are not overwritten when loading:
the command fails. The option:--force option can be used to allow this.
option:-f, option:--force::
Overwrite existing tracing sessions when loading.
-option:-i, option:--input-path='PATH'::
+option:-i 'PATH', option:--input-path='PATH'::
Load tracing session configurations from 'PATH', either a directory
or a file, instead of loading them from the default search
directories.
+option:--override-name='NAME'::
+ Override the name of the loaded tracing session configuration,
+ 'SESSION', with 'NAME'.
++
+You must specify a tracing session name to load ('SESSION') and :not:
+use the option:--all option when using this option.
+
+option:--override-url='URL'::
+ Override the URL of the loaded tracing session configurations
+ with 'URL'.
++
+This is the equivalent of the nloption:--set-url option of
+man:lttng-create(1). The validity of the URL override depends on the
+type of tracing session configurations to load. This option applies to
+_all_ the loaded tracing session configurations.
