How to retrieve the start and end times for the vFunction Analysis from the logs



Steps on a Linux Server

Take the following steps to find the duration of the analysis from the logs of a vFunction Server logs running on a Linux Server:

  1. SSH to the Linux VM
  2. Run the following command to gather the timestamp of the Analysis Start Time
  • Root / Sudo Installation Location:
sudo grep "*** Analysis has started ***" /var/log/vfunction/vfapi.log
  • Sudoless Installation Location: $BASE_DIR/vfunction/var/log/vfunction/
### Replace $BASE_DIR with the location where the vFunction Server was installed
grep "*** Analysis has started ***" $BASE_DIR/vfunction/var/log/vfunction/vfapi.log
  1. Run the following command to gather the timestamp of the Analysis Stop Time
  • Root / Sudo Installation Location:
sudo grep "*** Analysis completed ***" /var/log/vfunction/vfapi.log
  • Sudoless Installation Location: $BASE_DIR/vfunction/var/log/vfunction/
### Replace $BASE_DIR with the location where the vFunction Server was installed
grep "*** Analysis completed ***" $BASE_DIR/vfunction/var/log/vfunction/vfapi.log

Steps on a cluster Server

Take the following steps to find the duration of the analysis from the logs of a vFunction Server logs running on a cluster:

  1. Open the logs of the vfunction-vfapi-measurements Pod
  2. Search for the string below to gather the timestamp of the Analysis Start Time
*** Analysis has started ***
  1. Run the following command to gather the timestamp of the Analysis Stop Time
*** Analysis completed ***
