NAME¶
tau2profile - convert TAU tracefiles to TAU profile files
SYNOPSIS¶
tau2vprofile [-d directory]
[-s snapshot_interval] {tau_tracefile}
{tau_eventfile}
DESCRIPTION¶
This program is generated when TAU is configured with the -TRACE option.
The tau2profile converter takes a single tau_tracefile (*.trc) and tau_eventfile
(*.edf) and produces a corresponding series of profile files. The input files
must be specified in that order, with optinal parameters coming afterward.
Multi-file TAU traces must be merged before conversion.
OPTIONS¶
-d Output profile files to the specified 'directory' rather than the
current directory.
-s Output a profile snapshot showing the state of the profile data
accumulated from the trace every 'snapshot_interval' time units. The snapshot
profiles are placed sequentially in directories labled 'snapshot_n' where 'n'
is an integer ranging from 0 to to the total number of snapshots -1.
EXAMPLES¶
The program must be run with the tau trace and tau event files specified in the
command line in that order. Any additional arguments follow. The following
will produce a profile file array, from the TAU trace and event files
merged.trc and tau.edf trace file:
tau2profile merged.trc tau.edf
The following will convert merged.trc and tau.edf to a series of profiles one
directory higher. It will also produce a profile snapshot every 250,000 time
units:
tau2profile merged.trc tau.edf -d ./.. -s 250000
