SAMBA-LOG-PARSER(1)

NAME
samba-log-parser - Samba (winbind) trace parser. options:
  -h, --help show this help message and exit
  --traceid ID specify the traceid of the trace records
  --pid PID specify the pid of winbind client
  --breakdown breakdown the traces into per traceid files
  --merge-by-timestamp merge logs by timestamp
  --flow show the request/sub-request flow traces
  --flow-compact show the request/sub-request flow traces without dcerpc details

SYNOPSIS

samba-log-parser {path} [--pid=PID] [--traceid=ID] [--breakdown] [--merge-by-timestamp] [--flow] [--flow-compact] [-h|--help]

DESCRIPTION

This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.

The samba-log-parser program parses samba winbind logs.

OPTIONS

The following options are available to the samba-log-parser program.

--pid=PID
    Display traces for winbind client with the matching PID.

--traceid=ID
    Display traces with matching traceid debug header field.

--breakdown
    Break down all traces to separate files in the current working directory. For each traceid, three files are created: traceid.full traceid.flow traceid.flowcompact

--merge-by-timestamp
    Sort the trace lines according to the timestamp. Works with log files without traceid header field as well.

--flow
    Display the request/sub-request flow.

--flow-compact
    Display the request/sub-request flow without dcerpc call details.

EXAMPLES

Show the flow traces for trace id 1234 from log file log.winbind:

    	# samba-log-parser --traceid 1234 --flow /var/log/samba/log.winbind

Show the full traces for winbind client with PID 999999 sorted using the timestamp for log files found in the samba log directory:

    	# samba-log-parser --pid 999999 --merge-by-timestamp /var/log/samba

Break down the traces into separate files according to traceid sorted using the timestamp for log files found in the samba log directory:

    	# samba-log-parser --breakdown --merge-by-timestamp /var/log/samba

Sort traces using the timestamp for log files found in the samba log directory. Traces do not need to contain the traceid header field.

    	# samba-log-parser --merge-by-timestamp /var/log/samba

VERSION

This man page is part of version 4.23.6 of the Samba suite.
