LTTNG-DISABLE-CHAN(1) LTTng Manual LTTNG-DISABLE-CHAN(1)
lttng-disable-channel - Disable LTTng channels
lttng [GENERAL OPTIONS] disable-channel (--kernel | --userspace)
[--session=SESSION] CHANNEL[,CHANNEL]...
The lttng disable-channel command disables one or more channels
previously enabled with the lttng-enable-channel(1) command which
belong to:
With the --session=SESSION option
The recording session named SESSION.
Without the --session option
The current recording session (see lttng-concepts(7) to learn
more about the current recording session).
See lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about channels.
The disable-channel command disables one channel per CHANNEL
argument.
As of LTTng 2.15.1, you may NOT enable a disabled channel once its
recording session has been started (see lttng-start(1)) at least
once.
See the “EXAMPLES” section below for usage examples.
See lttng(1) for GENERAL OPTIONS.
Tracing domain
One of:
-k, --kernel
Disable one or more Linux kernel channels.
-u, --userspace
Disable one or more user space channels.
Recording target
-s SESSION, --session=SESSION
Disable one or more channels of the recording session named
SESSION instead of the current recording session.
Program information
-h, --help
Show help.
This option attempts to launch /usr/bin/man to view this
manual page. Override the manual pager path with the
LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH environment variable.
--list-options
List available command options and quit.
0
Success
1
Command error
2
Undefined command
3
Fatal error
4
Command warning (something went wrong during the command)
LTTNG_ABORT_ON_ERROR
Set to 1 to abort the process after the first error is
encountered.
LTTNG_HOME
Path to the LTTng home directory.
Defaults to $HOME.
Useful when the Unix user running the commands has a
non-writable home directory.
LTTNG_LIST_LEGACY
Set to 1 to use the legacy output format (LTTng 2.14 and
earlier) for the lttng-list(1) command instead of the modern
output format.
Note that the legacy output doesn’t show anything related to
features introduced after LTTng 2.14.
LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH
Absolute path to the manual pager to use to read the LTTng
command-line help (with lttng-help(1) or with the --help
option) instead of /usr/bin/man.
LTTNG_NO_UTF_8
Set to 1 to NOT emit multi-byte UTF-8 sequences, even if the
locale claims to support it.
LTTNG_SESSION_CONFIG_XSD_PATH
Path to the directory containing the session.xsd recording
session configuration XML schema.
LTTNG_SESSIOND_PATH
Absolute path to the LTTng session daemon binary (see
lttng-sessiond(8)) to spawn from the lttng-create(1) command.
The --sessiond-path general option overrides this environment
variable.
LTTNG_TERM_COLOR
Controls when to emit terminal SGR codes in the output.
The NO_COLOR environment variable overrides this.
One of:
auto (default)
Only emit SGR codes when the standard output is connected
to a color-capable terminal.
always
Always emit SGR codes.
never
Never emit SGR codes.
NO_COLOR
If set and not empty, then it’s equivalent to setting
LTTNG_TERM_COLOR to never.
See NO_COLOR <https://no-color.org/> to learn more.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc
Unix user’s LTTng runtime configuration.
This is where LTTng stores the name of the Unix user’s current
recording session between executions of lttng(1).
lttng-create(1) and lttng-set-session(1) set the current
recording session.
$LTTNG_HOME/lttng-traces
Default output directory of LTTng traces in local and snapshot
modes.
Override this path with the --output option of the
lttng-create(1) command.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng
Unix user’s LTTng runtime and configuration directory.
$LTTNG_HOME/.lttng/sessions
Default directory containing the Unix user’s saved recording
session configurations (see lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).
/usr/local/etc/lttng/sessions
Directory containing the system-wide saved recording session
configurations (see lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).
Note
$LTTNG_HOME defaults to the value of the HOME environment
variable.
Example 1. Disable one Linux kernel channel of the current
recording session.
$ lttng disable-channel --kernel my-channel
Example 2. Disable two user space channels of a specific recording
session.
See the --session option.
$ lttng disable-channel --kernel --session=my-session \
