How to start td-agent service for fluentd configuration file which is not in the default /etc/td-agent/td-agent.conf location? I tried with 

td-agent -c /home/charith/Documents/fdConfig/configuration.conf

but not sure how to restart the service after a change in a log file happens!

The default location of configuration file is etc/td-agent/td-agent.conf. By using sudo systemctl restart td-agent will restart the file at the default location. If started by td-agent -c configuration.conf only way to restart is first press ctrl+c to stop and then again restart using the same command.
