The audit is incremental. The first audit must be performed with the **-r** option to initialize the tables. The tool reports inconsistencies in the balance or incorrect cryptographic signatures found in the database. It does NOT check with the bank to see that the incoming and outgoing wire transfers that the bank claims to have matches the exchange’s database. Its options are as follows. **-c** *FILENAME* \| **--config=**\ ‌\ *FILENAME* Use the configuration and other resources for the merchant to operate from *FILENAME*. **-h** \| **--help** Print short help on options. **-i** \| **--internal** Run additional checks that can only performed on the exchange-internal database and not the "safe" replicated database at the auditor. **-L** *LOGLEVEL* \| **--loglevel=**\ ‌\ *LOGLEVEL* Specifies the log level to use. Accepted values are: ``DEBUG``, ``INFO``, ``WARNING``, ``ERROR``. **-l** *FILENAME* \| **--logfile=**\ ‌\ *FILENAME* Send logging output to *FILENAME*. **-m** *KEY* \| **--exchange-key=**\ ‌\ *KEY* Public master key of the exchange in Crockford base32 encoding, for example as generated by ``taler-auditor-offline setup``. If this option is missing, taler-auditor will use the MASTER_PUBLIC_KEY value from the “exchange” section of the configuration. **-T** *USEC* \| **--timetravel=**\ \ *USEC* Modify the system time by *USEC* microseconds. *USEC* may be prefixed with ``+`` or ``-`` (e.g. ``-T +300``). This option is intended for debugging/testing only. **-v** \| **--version** Print version information.
