DESCRIPTION
orblist reads packets from an
orb ring buffer and
prints to stdout information about those packets.
orblist prints
the srcname and time of each packet. It also checks packet time against
"expected" packet time - a time which is calculated based on the size of the packet
and a sample rate. If the packet time is not equal to the "expected" time
an
orblist print a mesage about this. This program is very
useful if the user wants quickly to check data on time gaps or to get
a hexdump of orb packets.
OPTIONS
-
-d
Tells orblist to print a hexdump of orb packets.
-
-h
Tells orblist to print a hexdump of raw packets. A raw packet is an
orb packet without the orb header.
-
-m srcmatch
Only packets with a srcname matching the regular expression srcmatch
will be read from an orb.
-
-n time_diff
Specify in seconds an expected time difference between packets.
-
-s
Usually orblist reads packets from an orb and puts them in a pipe
sorted by time. This option tells orblist not to sort packets.
-
start [twindow]
Specify a time range of packets which will be read from an orb.
EXAMPLE
Read packets with a srcname matching ".*1S" regular expression from bbarray orb;
time difference between packets expected to be 60 seconds.
% orblist -m ".*1S" -n 60 bbarray
