fstrace_help

FSTRACE_HELP(8) 					       AFS Command Reference						   FSTRACE_HELP(8)

NAME

       fstrace_help - Displays help for fstrace commands

SYNOPSIS

       fstrace help [-topic <help string>+] [-help]

       fstrace h [-t <help string>+] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The fstrace help command displays the complete online help entry (short description and syntax statement) for each command operation code
       specified by the -topic argument. If the -topic argument is omitted, the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the
       online help entry for every fstrace command.

       To list every fstrace command whose name or short description includes a specified keyword, use the fstrace apropos command.

OPTIONS

       -topic <help string>+
	   Indicates each command for which to display the complete online help entry. Omit the fstrace part of the command name, providing only
	   the operation code (for example, specify clear, not fstrace clear). If this argument is omitted, the output briefly describes every
	   fstrace command.

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

OUTPUT

       The online help entry for each fstrace command consists of two or three lines:

       o   The first line names the command and briefly describes its function.

       o   The second line lists aliases for the command, if any.

       o   The final line, which begins with the string "Usage", lists the command's options in the prescribed order. Online help entries use the
	   same symbols (for example, brackets) as the reference pages in this document.

EXAMPLES

       The following command displays the online help entry for the fstrace setset command:

	  % fstrace help -topic setset
	  fstrace setset: set state of event sets
	  Usage: fstrace setset [-set <set_name>+] [-active] [-inactive]
	  [-dormant] [-help]
