NAME

       tau2elg - convert TAU tracefiles to Epilog tracefiles

SYNOPSIS

       tau2elg [-nomessage] [-v] {tau_tracefile} {tau_eventfile} {elg_tracefile}

DESCRIPTION

       This program is generated when TAU is configured with the -epilog=<epilog_dir> option.

       The tau2elg trace converter takes a tau trace file (*.trc) and event definition file (*.edf) and produces a corresponding epilog binary
       trace file (*.elg). Multi-file TAU traces must be merged before conversion.

OPTIONS

       -nomessage Suppresses printing of message information in the trace.

       -v Verbose mode sends trace event descriptions to the standard output as they are converted.

EXAMPLES

       The program must be run with the tau trace, tau event and elg output files specified in the command line in that order. Any additional
       arguments follow. The following would convert merged.trc and tau.edf to the Epilog tracefile app.elg, with message events omitted:

NAME

       vtf2profile - Generate a TAU profile set from a vampir trace file

SYNOPSIS

       vtf2profile [-p profile] [-i interval_start interval_end] [-c] [-h] {-f tracefile}

DESCRIPTION

       vtf2profile is created when TAU is configured with the -vtf=<vtf_dir> option. This tool converts a VTF trace file (*.vpt) to a tau profile
       set (profile.A.B.C where A, B and C are the node, context and thread numbers respectively).

       The vtf file to be read is specified in the command line by the -f flag followed by the file's location. The VTF tracefile specified may be
       in gzipped form, eg app.vpt.gz. -p is similarly used to specify the relative path to the directory where the profile files should be
       stored. If no output directory is specified the current directory will be used. A contiguous interval within the vtf file may be selected
       for conversion by using the -i flag followed by two integers, representing the timestamp of the start and end of the desired interval
       respectively. The entire vtf file is converted if no interval is given.

OPTIONS

       -f tracefile -Specify the Vampir tracefile to be converted.

       -p profile -Specify the location where the profile file(s) should be written.

       -i interval_start interval_end -Limit the profile produced to the specified interval within the vampir trace file.

       -c -Opens a command line interface for the program.

       -h -Displays a help message.

EXAMPLES

       To convert a vampir tracefile, trace.vpt, to an equivalent TAU profile, use the following:

       vtf2profile -f trace.vpt

       To produce a TAU profile in the ./profiles directory representing only the events from the start of the tracefile to timestamp 6000, use:

       vtf2profile -f trace.vpt -p ./profiles -i 0 6000
