LTTNG-DISABLE-CHAN(1) LTTng Manual LTTNG-DISABLE-CHAN(1)

NAME

lttng-disable-channel - Disable LTTng channels

SYNOPSIS

lttng [GENERAL OPTIONS] disable-channel (--kernel | --userspace)


      [--session=SESSION] CHANNEL[,CHANNEL]...

DESCRIPTION

The lttng disable-channel command disables one or more channels previously enabled by the lttng-enable-channel(1) command.

A channel is always contained in a tracing session (see lttng-create(1) for creating a tracing session). The session in which a channel is disabled using lttng disable-channel can be specified using the --session option. If the --session option is omitted, the current tracing session is targeted.

Note that re-enabling a disabled channel once its tracing session has been active at least once is currently not supported.

OPTIONS

General options are described in lttng(1).

Domain

One of:

-k, --kernel

Disable channel in the Linux kernel domain.

-u, --userspace

Disable channel in the user space domain.

Target

-s SESSION, --session=SESSION

Disable channels in the tracing session named SESSION instead of the current tracing session.

Program information

-h, --help

Show command help.

This option, like lttng-help(1), attempts to launch /usr/bin/man to view the command’s man page. The path to the man pager can be overridden by the LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH environment variable.

--list-options

List available command options.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

LTTNG_ABORT_ON_ERROR

Set to 1 to abort the process after the first error is encountered.

LTTNG_HOME

Overrides the $HOME environment variable. Useful when the user running the commands has a non-writable home directory.

LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH

Absolute path to the man pager to use for viewing help information about LTTng commands (using lttng-help(1) or lttng COMMAND --help).

LTTNG_SESSION_CONFIG_XSD_PATH

Path in which the session.xsd session configuration XML schema may be found.

LTTNG_SESSIOND_PATH

Full session daemon binary path.

The --sessiond-path option has precedence over this environment variable.

Note that the lttng-create(1) command can spawn an LTTng session daemon automatically if none is running. See lttng-sessiond(8) for the environment variables influencing the execution of the session daemon.

FILES

$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc

User LTTng runtime configuration.

This is where the per-user current tracing session is stored between executions of lttng(1). The current tracing session can be set with lttng-set-session(1). See lttng-create(1) for more information about tracing sessions.

$LTTNG_HOME/lttng-traces

Default output directory of LTTng traces. This can be overridden with the --output option of the lttng-create(1) command.

$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng

User LTTng runtime and configuration directory.

$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng/sessions

Default location of saved user tracing sessions (see lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).

/usr/local/etc/lttng/sessions

System-wide location of saved tracing sessions (see lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).


Note

$LTTNG_HOME defaults to $HOME when not explicitly set.
