12
14 auvirt shows a list of guest sessions found in the audit logs. If a
15 guest is specified, only the events related to that guest is consid‐
16 ered. To specify a guest, both UUID or VM name can be given.
17
18 For each guest session the tool prints a record with the domain name,
19 the user that started the guest, the time when the guest was started
20 and the time when the guest was stoped.
21
22 If the option "--all-events" is given a more detailed output is shown.
23 In this mode other records are shown for guest's stops, resource
24 assignments, host shutdowns and AVC and anomaly events. The first field
25 indicates the event type and can have the following values: start,
26 stop, res, avc, anom and down (for host shutdowns).
27
28 Resource assignments have the additional fields: resource type, reason
29 and resource. And AVC records have the following additional fields:
30 operation, result, command and target.
31
32 By default, auvirt reads records from the system audit log file. But
33 --stdin and --file options can be specified to change this behavior.
34
35
37 --all-events
38 Show records for all virtualization related events.
39
40 --debug
41 Print debug messages to standard output.
42
43 -f, --file file
44 Read records from the given file instead from the system audit
45 log file.
46
47 -h, --help
48 Print help message and exit.
49
50 --proof
51 Add after each event a line containing all the identifiers of
52 the audit records used to calculate the event. Each identifier
53 consists of unix time, milliseconds and serial number.
54
55 --show-uuid
56 Add the guest's UUID to each record.
57
58 --stdin
59 Read records from the standard input instead from the system
60 audit log file. This option cannot be specified with --file.
61
62 --summary
63 Print a summary with information about the events found. The
64 summary contains the considered range of time, the number of
65 guest starts and stops, the number of resource assignments, the
66 number of AVC and anomaly events, the number of host shutdowns
67 and the number of failed operations.
68
69 -te, --end [end-date] [end-time]
70 Search for events with time stamps equal to or before the given
71 end time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If the
72 date is omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted, now
73 is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM to spec‐
74 ify time. An example date using the en_US.utf8 locale is
75 09/03/2009. An example of time is 18:00:00. The date format
76 accepted is influenced by the LC_TIME environmental variable.
77
78 You may also use the word: now, recent, today, yesterday,
79 this-week, week-ago, this-month, this-year. Today means starting
80 now. Recent is 10 minutes ago. Yesterday is 1 second after mid‐
81 night the previous day. This-week means starting 1 second after
82 midnight on day 0 of the week determined by your locale (see
83 localtime). This-month means 1 second after midnight on day 1 of
84 the month. This-year means the 1 second after midnight on the
85 first day of the first month.
86
87 -ts, --start [start-date] [start-time]
88 Search for events with time stamps equal to or after the given
89 end time. The format of end time depends on your locale. If the
90 date is omitted, today is assumed. If the time is omitted, mid‐
91 night is assumed. Use 24 hour clock time rather than AM or PM to
92 specify time. An example date using the en_US.utf8 locale is
93 09/03/2009. An example of time is 18:00:00. The date format
94 accepted is influenced by the LC_TIME environmental variable.
95
96 You may also use the word: now, recent, today, yesterday,
97 this-week, this-month, this-year. Today means starting at 1
98 second after midnight. Recent is 10 minutes ago. Yesterday is 1
99 second after midnight the previous day. This-week means start‐
100 ing 1 second after midnight on day 0 of the week determined by
101 your locale (see localtime). This-month means 1 second after
102 midnight on day 1 of the month. This-year means the 1 second
103 after midnight on the first day of the first month.
104
105 -u, --uuid UUID
106 Only show events related to the guest with the given UUID.
107
108 -v, --vm name
109 Only show events related to the guest with the given name.
