Re: Understanding the timestamp of ltrace

I am using the latest public stable release (a.k.a. v. 4.3.2).
Using polygraph-lr, the timing is correct. However, they are false with pol=
ygraph-ltrace.

Thanks! This works like a charm!

Furthermore, I experience issues when inspecting logs from multiple clients=
 and servers hosts.
When running
$ polygraph-ltrace --object err_xact.count --side all *.log

I obtain the following errors:
server1.log:warning: failed to read log file, skipping
server2.log:warning: failed to read log file, skipping
=85 for all the servers logs
followed by the "normal" ltrace output based on the clients logs only.

Whey running the same command on the server logs only, the trace is correct=
 and no warnings are issued. It works also correctly with client logs only.
However, when starting to mix client and server logs together, I obtain aga=
in warnings on STDERR.

The error happens on any --side all|clt|srv and --sync_times 0|1 combinatio=
n.
Also possibly related, when using polygraph-reporter on the same logs, the =
polygraph-reporter app gets killed after passing to server-side plots. The =
crash does not happen with client logs only.

Is that also a bug, or am I misunderstanding the logging mechanism?


Thank you a lot for your explanations.

Cheers,

Franck
