SYNOPSIS
lttng [GENERAL OPTIONS] disable-channel (--kernel | --userspace)
[--session=SESSION] CHANNEL[,CHANNEL]...
DESCRIPTION
The lttng disable-channel command disables one or more channels previously enabled by the lttng-enable-channel(1) command.
A channel is always contained in a tracing session (see lttng-create(1) for creating a tracing session). The session in which a channel is disabled using lttng disable-channel can be specified using the --session option. If the --session option is omitted, the current tracing session is targeted.
Note that re-enabling a disabled channel once its tracing session has been active at least once is currently not supported.
OPTIONS
General options are described in lttng(1).
Domain
One of:
-k, --kernel
- Disable channel in the Linux kernel domain.
-u, --userspace
- Disable channel in the user space domain.
Target
-s, --session=SESSION
- Disable channels in the tracing session named SESSION instead of the current tracing session.
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.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
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.
FILES
$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.
EXIT STATUS
0
- Success
1
- Command error
2
- Undefined command
3
- Fatal error
4
- Command warning (something went wrong during the command)
