NAME¶
bootchart - render a chart from the statistical data recorded with
bootchartd
SYNOPSIS¶
bootchart [-f|--format FORMAT] [-n|--no-prune] [-o|--output-dir
DIR] files ...
DESCRIPTION¶
bootchart is used to process the log file created by
bootchartd(1) (
/var/log/bootchart.tgz by default). bootchart builds the process tree
and renders a performance chart in different formats. The chart may then be
analyzed to examine process dependency and overall resource utilization.
OPTIONS¶
- -f,--format FORMAT
- Sets the format of the image. Possible values are: png,
eps, svg (default)
- -h, --help
- Display brief usage message.
- -n, --no-prune
- Do not prune the process tree. To make the resulting
process tree more comprehensible, bootchart will prune the tree using
various techniques (removing short-lived processes, merging processes,
etc.). This option disables such behavior.
- -o, --output-dir DIR
- Sets the output directory for the resulting image.
(default: .)
- -v, --version
- Show program version.
FILES¶
- /var/log/bootchart.tgz
- the default log file to parse (unless otherwise
specified).
