NAME

tracelevel -- set dfstrace tracing level

SYNOPSIS

tracelevel level

DESCRIPTION

  Tracelevel sets the level of tracing done by dfstrace. There are three options, defined in <dfs/dfstracebuf.h>. DFS_TRACE_ON (1), turns on tracing of file system calls, excluding reads and writes. DFS_TRACE_NAMERES (2) turns on tracing on name resolution operations. DFS_TRACE_READWRITE (4) turns on tracing of read and write system calls. Default is 3 (system calls + name resolution). Tracelevel must be run as root.

DIAGNOSTICS

The following are frequently encountered errors:

``can't open /dev/dfstrace''. Either /dev/dfstrace doesn't exist, or the program isn't being run as root.
