NAME

       oparchive - produce archive of oprofile data for offline analysis

SYNOPSIS

       oparchive [ options ] [profile specification] -o [directory]

DESCRIPTION

       oparchive  generates  a  directory  populated  with executable, debug, and oprofile sample
       files. This directory can be move to another machine via tar and analyzed without  further
       use   of   the  data  collection  machine.  See  oprofile(1)  for  how  to  write  profile
       specifications.

OPTIONS

       --help / -? / --usage
              Show help message.

       --version / -v
              Show version.

       --verbose / -V [options]
              Give verbose debugging output.

       --session-dir=dir_path
              Use sample database from the specified directory dir_path instead  of  the  default
              locations.  If  --session-dir  is  not  specified,  then  oparchive will search for
              samples in <current_dir>/oprofile_data first. If that directory does not exist, the
              standard session-dir of /var/lib/oprofile is used.

       --image-path / -p [paths]
              Comma-separated list of additional paths to search for binaries.  This is needed to
              find modules in kernels 2.6 and upwards.

       --root / -R [path]
              A path to a filesystem to search for additional binaries.

       --output-directory / -o [directory]
              Output to the given directory. There is no default. This must be specified.

       --exclude-dependent / -x
              Do not include application-specific images for libraries, kernel  modules  and  the
              kernel. This option only makes sense if the profile session used --separate.

       --list-files / -l
              Only list the files that would be archived, don't copy them.
