FSTRACE_SETSET(8)					       AFS Command Reference						 FSTRACE_SETSET(8)

NAME

       fstrace_setset - Sets the status of an event set

SYNOPSIS

       fstrace setset [-set <set name>+]
	   [-active] [-inactive] [-dormant] [-help]

       fs sets [-s <set name>+] [-a] [-i] [-d] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The fstrace setset command sets the status of the "cm" kernel event set on the local machine, which determines whether trace messages are
       recorded in the log buffer in kernel memory.

OPTIONS

       -set <set name>+
	   Names the event set for which to set the status. The only acceptable value "cm", which is also the default if this argument is omitted.

       -active
	   Enables tracing for the event set and allocates kernel memory for the associated trace log buffer. Provide one of this flag, the
	   -inactive flag, or the -dormant flag.

       -inactive
	   Temporarily disables tracing for the event set, but does not change the allocation of kernel memory for the associated trace log
	   buffer.  Provide one of this flag, the -active flag, or the -dormant flag.

       -dormant
	   Disables tracing for the event set and frees the kernel memory previously allocated for the associated trace log buffer. Provide one of
	   this flag, the -active flag, or the -inactive flag.

       -help
	   Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The following example sets the cm event set's status to inactive:

	  # fstrace setset -set cm -inactive

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser "root".

NAME

       fstrace - Introduction to the fstrace command suite

DESCRIPTION

       The commands in the fstrace command suite are the interface that system administrators employ to trace Cache Manager operations for
       debugging purposes. Examples of Cache Manager operations are fetching file data or the status information used to produce output for the
       UNIX ls command.

       The fstrace command interpreter defines an extensive set of Cache Manager operations as the "cm" event set.  When the event set is
       activated, the Cache Manager writes a message to the "cmfx" trace log in kernel memory each time it performs one of the defined operations.
       The log expands only to a defined size (by default, 60 KB), after which it is overwritten in a circular fashion (new trace messages
       overwrite the oldest ones). If an operation of particular interest occurs, the administrator can afterward display the log on the standard
       output stream or write it to a file for later study. For more specific procedural instructions, see the OpenAFS Administration Guide.

       There are several categories of commands in the fstrace command suite:

       o   Commands to administer or display information about the trace log: fstrace clear, fstrace lslog, and fstrace setlog.

       o   Commands to set or display the status of the event set: fstrace lsset and fstrace setset.

       o   A command to display the contents of the trace log: fstrace dump.

       o   Commands to obtain help: fstrace apropos and fstrace help.

OPTIONS

       All fstrace commands accept the following optional flag.  It is listed in the command descriptions and described in detail here:

       -help
	   Prints a command's online help message on the standard output stream. Do not combine this flag with any of the command's other options;
	   when it is provided, the command interpreter ignores all other options, and only prints the help message.

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       To issue most fstrace commands, the issuer must be logged on as the local superuser "root" on the machine that is generating the trace log.
