Many of CRIU's command-line options can also be influenced via configuration files. Configuration files are evaluated in [[CLI]] and [[RPC]] mode. It is important to know that configuration files are evaluated before the options set via CLI or RPC. This means that whatever is configured in the configuration files will be overwritten by explicitly set values via CLI or RPC.

As configuration file settings are overridden by CLI and RPC mode, there is a special RPC options which lets configuration file settings override RPC settings. This is different than the normal sequence and can lead to situation which break the RPC client -> CRIU setup. As this can lead to broken setups the RPC client has to explicitly enable this mode: <code>opts.prefer_config_file = True</code>.
