 16.4.5.2 Command Options for `ndbd'
 ...................................
 
 For common options see  MySQL Cluster Command Options.
 
 `-d, --daemon'
      Instructs `ndbd' to execute as a daemon process. From MySQL 4.1.5
      on, this is the default behavior.
 
 `--nodaemon'
      Instructs `ndbd' not to start as a daemon process. Useful when
      `ndbd' is debugged and one wants printouts on the screen.
 
 `--initial'
      Instructs `ndbd' to perform an initial start. An initial start will
      erase any files created by earlier `ndbd' instances for recovery.
      It will also recreate recovery log files which on some operating
      systems can take a substantial amount of time.
 
      An initial start is only to be used at the very first start of the
      `ndbd' process. It removes all files from the file system and
      creates all REDO log files. When performing a software upgrade
      which has changed the file contents on any files it is also
      necessary to use this option when restarting the node with a new
      software version of `ndbd'. Finally it could also be used as a
      final resort if for some reason the node restart or system restart
      doesn't work. In this case be aware that destroying the contents
      of the file system means that this node can no longer be used to
      restore data.
 
      This option does not affect any backup files created.
 
      The previous possibility to use `-i' for this option was removed to
      ensure that this option is not used by mistake.
 
 `--nostart'
      Instructs `ndbd' not to automatically start. `ndbd' will connect
      to the management server and get the configuration and initialize
      communication objects. It will not start the execution engine until
      requested to do so by the management server. The management server
      can request by command issued by the management client.
