| 17 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 18 | ----------- | |
| 484b2a0c PP |
19 | The `lttng start` command starts a tracing session, that is, it |
| 20 | activates the LTTng tracers for: | |
| 30ec772c | 21 | |
| 484b2a0c PP |
22 | With the 'SESSION' argument:: |
| 23 | The tracing session named 'SESSION'. | |
| 30ec772c | 24 | |
| 484b2a0c | 25 | Without the 'SESSION' argument:: |
| 188419c4 PP |
26 | The current tracing session (see man:lttng-concepts(7) to learn more |
| 27 | about the current tracing session). | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | See man:lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about tracing sessions. | |
| 30ec772c | 30 | |
| 484b2a0c PP |
31 | The selected tracing session must be inactive (stopped). A tracing |
| 32 | session is inactive on creation (see man:lttng-create(1)). | |
| 33 | ||
| 484b2a0c PP |
34 | A `start-session` trigger action can also start a tracing session |
| 35 | (see man:lttng-add-trigger(1)). | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | Stop an active tracing session with the man:lttng-stop(1) command. | |
