NAME
vfs_time_audit - samba vfs module to log slow VFS operations
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = time_audit
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The time_audit VFS module logs system calls that take longer than the
number of milliseconds defined by the variable time_audit:timeout. It
will log the calls and the time spent in it.
It's kind of comparable with strace -T and is helpful to reveal
performance problems with the underlying file and storage subsystems.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
time_audit:timeout = number of milliseconds
VFS calls that take longer than the defined number of milliseconds
that should be logged. The default is 10000 (10s).
EXAMPLES
This would log VFS calls that take longer than 3 seconds:
[sample_share]
path = /test/sample_share
vfs objects = time_audit
time_audit:timeout = 3000
VERSION
This man page is part of version 4.13.17 of the Samba suite.
