Redirect any (error or ...) message [2] to standard output [1] as standard output went to /dev/null... So syntax is cmd cmd...>file 2>&1 (As for crontab lines: either you redirect in 2 separate files or you >toLogfile 2>&1 )

>/dev/null

Maybe it's an stupid question but remeber... I'm Junior.. I use command line to run programs, and some of them gives a lot of information when, for example, you open a window or other actions. That's really bad because my terminal gets full of unwanted messages, so I use "bin file & >/dev/null"... (1 Reply)

TRACE-CMD-START(1)														TRACE-CMD-START(1)

NAME
trace-cmd-start - start the Ftrace Linux kernel tracer without recording SYNOPSIS
trace-cmd start [OPTIONS] DESCRIPTION
The trace-cmd(1) start enables all the Ftrace tracing the same way trace-cmd-record(1) does. The difference is that it does not run threads to create a trace.dat file. This is useful just to enable Ftrace and you are only interested in the trace after some event has occurred and the trace is stopped. Then the trace can be read straight from the Ftrace pseudo file system or can be extracted with trace-cmd-extract(1). OPTIONS
The options are the same as trace-cmd-record(1), except that it does not take options specific to recording (-s, -o, -F, -N, and -t). SEE ALSO
trace-cmd(1), trace-cmd-record(1), trace-cmd-report(1), trace-cmd-stop(1), trace-cmd-extract(1), trace-cmd-reset(1), trace-cmd-split(1), trace-cmd-list(1), trace-cmd-listen(1) AUTHOR
