The ncab2clf command is used to convert the log file generated by the Solaris Network Cache and Accelerator ("NCA") from binary format, to Common Log File ("CLF") format. If no input-file is specified, ncab2clf uses stdin. If no output-file is specified, the output goes to stdout.
Specifies the binary-log-file blocking in kilobytes; the default is 64 Kbyte.
Specifies that direct I/O be disabled.
Prints usage message.
Specifies the input file.
Specifies the output file.
Provides verbose output.
The following example converts the binary file /var/nca/logs/nca.blf to a file /var/nca/logs/nca.clf, which is in Common Log File format.
example% ncab2clf -D -i /var/nca/logs/nca.blf -o /var/nca/logs/nca.clf |
The following script may be used to convert multiple log files. The directory designated by "*" must only contain log files.
!/bin/ksh for filename in * do ncab2clf -D < $filename > $filename.clf done

The binary log files generated by NCA can become very large. When converting these large binary files, use the -b option to the ncab2clf command to help performance.
Direct I/O is a benefit to the user if the data being written does not come in as large chunks. However, if the user wishes to convert the log file in large chunks using the -b option, then direct I/O should be disabled by using the -D option.
