LTTNG-DESTROY(1) LTTng Manual LTTNG-DESTROY(1)
lttng-destroy - Destroy an LTTng tracing session
lttng [GENERAL OPTIONS] destroy [--no-wait] [--all | SESSION]
The lttng destroy command destroys one or more tracing sessions.
If no options are specified, the current tracing session is destroyed
(see lttng-create(1) for more information about the current tracing
session).
If SESSION is specified, the existing tracing session named SESSION
is destroyed. lttng list outputs all the existing tracing sessions
(see lttng-list(1)).
If the --all option is used, all the tracing sessions, as listed in
the output of lttng list, are destroyed.
Destroying a tracing session stops any tracing running within the
latter. By default, the implicit lttng-stop(1) command invoked by the
lttng destroy command ensures that the tracing session’s trace data
is valid before returning. With the --no-wait option, the
lttng-stop(1) command finishes immediately, hence a local trace might
not be valid when the command is done. In this case, there is no way
to know when the trace becomes valid.
Destroying a tracing session does not destroy the recorded trace
data, if any; it frees resources acquired by the session daemon and
tracer side, making sure to flush all trace data.
General options are described in lttng(1).
-a, --all
Destroy all tracing sessions.
-n, --no-wait
Do not ensure that the chosen tracing session’s trace data is
valid before returning to the prompt.
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.
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.
$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.
