NAME

       fstrace_setlog - Sets the size of a trace log

SYNOPSIS

       fstrace setlog [-log <log name>+]
           -buffersize <1-kilobyte units> [-help]

       fstrace setl [-l <log name>+]
           -b <1-kilobyte units> [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The fstrace setlog command defines the number of kilobytes of kernel memory allocated for
       the "cmfx" trace log. If kernel memory is currently allocated, the command clears the
       current log and creates a new log buffer of the specified size.

       To display the current defined size of the log buffer, issue the fstrace lslog command
       with the -long argument. To control whether the indicated amount of space is actually
       allocated, use the fstrace setset command to set the status of the "cm" event set; to
       display the event set's status, use the fstrace lsset command.

OPTIONS

       -log <log name>+
           Names trace log for which to set the size. The only acceptable value is "cmfx", which
           is also the default if this argument is omitted.

       -buffersize <1-kilobyte units>
           Specifies the number of 1-kilobyte blocks of kernel memory to allocate for the trace
           log.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The following command allocated 80 KB of kernel memory for the "cmfx" trace log:

          # fstrace setlog -log cmfx -buffersize 80

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser "root".
