NAME¶
traffic_crashlog - Traffic Server crash log helper
SYNOPSIS¶
traffic_crashlog [options]
DESCRIPTION¶
traffic_crashlog is a helper process that catches Traffic Server crashes
and writes a crash report log to the logging directory. Other than for
debugging or development purposes,
traffic_crashlog is not intended for
users to run directly.
When
traffic_server starts, it will launch a
traffic_crashlog
process and keep it stopped, activating it only if a crash occurs.
OPTIONS¶
- --host TRIPLE
- This option specifies the host triple for the process that
traffic_crashlog should examine. If a supported host triple is
specified, traffic_crashlog expects to receive a siginfo_t
structure on it's standard input, followed by a ucontext_t.
- --target PID
- Specifies the process ID of the crashing traffic_server process. If
this option is not specified, traffic_crashlog assumes it should
examine it's parent process.
- --syslog
- This option causes traffic_crashlog to log the name of the crash
log it creates to the system log.
- --debug
- This option enables debugging mode. In this mode, traffic_crashlog
emits the log to it's standard output.
- --wait
- This option causes traffic_crashlog to stop itself immediately
after it is launched. traffic_server will allow it to continue only
when a crash occurs.
CAVEATS¶
traffic_crashlog makes use of various Traffic Server management APIs. If
traffic_manager is not available, the crash log will be incomplete.
traffic_crashlog may generate a crash log containing information you
would rather not share outside your organization. Please examine the crash log
carefully before posting it in a public forum.
