lttng-save - Save LTTng tracing session configurations
lttng [GENERAL OPTIONS] save [--force] [--output-path=PATH] [SESSION]
The lttng save command saves the configurations of one or more
tracing sessions to files.
The lttng save command is used in conjunction with the lttng-load(1)
command to save and restore the complete configurations of tracing
sessions. This includes the enabled channels and event rules, the
context added to channels, the tracing activity, and more. lttng save
does not save tracing data, only the tracing session parameters.
If SESSION is omitted, all the existing tracing session
configurations are saved (equivalent to using the --all option).
Otherwise, SESSION is the name of an existing tracing session. lttng
list outputs all the existing tracing sessions (see lttng-list(1)).
The default output directory path is $LTTNG_HOME/.lttng/sessions
($LTTNG_HOME defaults to $HOME). Each tracing session configuration
file is named SESSION.lttng, where SESSION is the original tracing
session name. The default output directory path can be overridden
with the --output-path option.
By default, existing tracing session configuration files are not
overwritten when saving; the command fails. The --force option can be
used to allow this.
General options are described in lttng(1).
-a, --all
Save all tracing session configurations (default).
-f, --force
Overwrite existing tracing session configuration files when
saving.
-o PATH, --output-path=PATH
Set output directory path to PATH.
Program information
-h, --help
Show command help.
This option, like lttng-help(1), attempts to launch /usr/bin/man
to view the command’s man page. The path to the man pager can be
overridden by the LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH environment variable.
--list-options
List available command options.
LTTNG_ABORT_ON_ERROR
Set to 1 to abort the process after the first error is
encountered.
LTTNG_HOME
Overrides the $HOME environment variable. Useful when the user
running the commands has a non-writable home directory.
LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH
Absolute path to the man pager to use for viewing help
information about LTTng commands (using lttng-help(1) or lttng
COMMAND --help).
LTTNG_SESSION_CONFIG_XSD_PATH
Path in which the session.xsd session configuration XML schema
may be found.
LTTNG_SESSIOND_PATH
Full session daemon binary path.
The --sessiond-path option has precedence over this environment
variable.
Note that the lttng-create(1) command can spawn an LTTng session
daemon automatically if none is running. See lttng-sessiond(8) for
the environment variables influencing the execution of the session
daemon.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc
User LTTng runtime configuration.
This is where the per-user current tracing session is stored
between executions of lttng(1). The current tracing session can
be set with lttng-set-session(1). See lttng-create(1) for more
information about tracing sessions.
$LTTNG_HOME/lttng-traces
Default output directory of LTTng traces. This can be overridden
with the --output option of the lttng-create(1) command.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng
User LTTng runtime and configuration directory.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng/sessions
Default location of saved user tracing sessions (see
lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).
/usr/local/etc/lttng/sessions
System-wide location of saved tracing sessions (see lttng-save(1)
and lttng-load(1)).
Note
$LTTNG_HOME defaults to $HOME when not explicitly set.
