During the startup process of Xline, certain essential command-line parameters such as --member and --storage-engine are checked. When these parameters are missing from the startup command, an error occurs as follows:

$ ./xline --name node1
error: the following required arguments were not provided:
  --members <MEMBERS>
  --storage-engine <STORAGE_ENGINE>
  --data-dir <DATA_DIR>

Usage: xline --name <NAME> --members <MEMBERS> --storage-engine <STORAGE_ENGINE> --data-dir <DATA_DIR> [CURP_DIR]

However, there is a lack of validation for --client-listen-urls and --peer-listen-urls. When these two parameters are missing from the startup command, Xline can initiate, but it eventually exits due to the error No address to bind. Therefore, it is necessary to include validation for these two parameters during startup.
