OPARCHIVE(1) General Commands Manual OPARCHIVE(1)
oparchive - produce archive of oprofile data for offline analysis
oparchive [ options ] [profile specification] -o [directory]
The oparchive utility is commonly used for collecting profile data
on a "target" system for future offline analysis on a different
("host") machine. oparchive creates a directory populated with
executables, libraries, debuginfo files, and oprofile sample
files. This directory can be tar'ed up and moved to another
machine to be analyzed without further use of the target machine.
Using opreport and other post-profiling tools against archived
data requires the use of the archive:<archived-dir> specification.
See oprofile(1) for how to write profile specifications. A
complete description of offline analysis can be found in the
chapter titled Analyzing profile data on another system
(oparchive) of the OProfile user manual. (See the user manual URL
in the "SEE ALSO" section below.)
--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 location. 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.
No special environment variables are recognized by oparchive.
<session_dir>/samples
The location of the generated sample files.
