DESCRIPTION

You control TNF probe tracing activity by switching the probes on or off. By default, probes start in the off state. Once turned on, the specified probes can be turned off using the tnfdisable command.

You can disable probes by:

• Probe name - Defined in the TNF-instrumented Sun MPI library. Specify probes by using a list of space-separated probe names. You can also use probe names created in your own C or C++ program.

• A wildcard expression using shell pattern matching notation.

• A group name defined in the TNF-instrumented version of the Sun MPI library. Probes can belong to multiple probe_groups. If you specify a probe_group, all probes belonging to that probe_group are disabled. You can also use group names created in your own C or C++ program. You can specify only one probe_group per tnfdisable command.

For further information about creating TNF probes and groups, see the TNF_PROBE(3X) man page. For further information about the shell pattern matching format accepted by tnfdisable, see the fnmatch(5) man page.
