fstrace
FSTRACE(8) AFS Command Reference FSTRACE(8)
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.

fstrace_apropos(8), fstrace_clear(8), fstrace_dump(8), fstrace_help(8), fstrace_lslog(8), fstrace_lsset(8), fstrace_setlog(8),
