    <title>Description</title>

    <para><command>systemd-analyze</command> may be used to determine
    system boot-up performance statistics and retrieve other state and
    tracing information from the system and service manager, and to
    verify the correctness of unit files. It is also used to access
    special functions useful for advanced system manager debugging.</para>

    <para>If no command is passed, <command>systemd-analyze
    time</command> is implied.</para>

    <refsect2>
      <title><command>systemd-analyze time</command></title>

      <para>This command prints the time spent in the kernel before userspace has been reached, the time
      spent in the initial RAM disk (initrd) before normal system userspace has been reached, and the time
      normal system userspace took to initialize. Note that these measurements simply measure the time passed
      up to the point where all system services have been spawned, but not necessarily until they fully
      finished initialization or the disk is idle.</para>

      <example>
        <title><command>Show how long the boot took</command></title>

        <programlisting># in a container
$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 296ms (userspace)
multi-user.target reached after 275ms in userspace

# on a real machine
$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 2.584s (kernel) + 19.176s (initrd) + 47.847s (userspace) = 1min 9.608s
multi-user.target reached after 47.820s in userspace
</programlisting>
      </example>

    <refsect2>
      <title><command>systemd-analyze blame</command></title>

      <para>This command prints a list of all running units, ordered by the time they took to initialize.
      This information may be used to optimize boot-up times. Note that the output might be misleading as the
      initialization of one service might be slow simply because it waits for the initialization of another
      service to complete.  Also note: <command>systemd-analyze blame</command> doesn't display results for
      services with <varname>Type=simple</varname>, because systemd considers such services to be started
      immediately, hence no measurement of the initialization delays can be done. Also note that this command
      only shows the time units took for starting up, it does not show how long unit jobs spent in the
      execution queue. In particular it shows the time units spent in <literal>activating</literal> state,
      which is not defined for units such as device units that transition directly from
      <literal>inactive</literal> to <literal>active</literal>. This command hence gives an impression of the
      performance of program code, but cannot accurately reflect latency introduced by waiting for
      hardware and similar events.</para>

      <example>
        <title><command>Show which units took the most time during boot</command></title>

        <programlisting>$ systemd-analyze blame
         32.875s pmlogger.service
         20.905s systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
         13.299s dev-vda1.device
         ...
            23ms sysroot.mount
            11ms initrd-udevadm-cleanup-db.service
             3ms sys-kernel-config.mount
        </programlisting>
      </example>

    <refsect2>
      <title><command>systemd-analyze critical-chain <optional><replaceable>UNIT</replaceable>...</optional></command></title>

      <para>This command prints a tree of the time-critical chain of units (for each of the specified
      <replaceable>UNIT</replaceable>s or for the default target otherwise). The time after the unit is
      active or started is printed after the "@" character. The time the unit takes to start is printed after
      the "+" character. Note that the output might be misleading as the initialization of services might
      depend on socket activation and because of the parallel execution of units. Also, similar to the
      <command>blame</command> command, this only takes into account the time units spent in
      <literal>activating</literal> state, and hence does not cover units that never went through an
      <literal>activating</literal> state (such as device units that transition directly from
      <literal>inactive</literal> to <literal>active</literal>). Moreover it does not show information on
      jobs (and in particular not jobs that timed out).</para>

      <example>
        <title><command>systemd-analyze time</command></title>

      <programlisting>$ systemd-analyze critical-chain

      <para>This command prints an SVG graphic detailing which system services have been started at what
      time, highlighting the time they spent on initialization.</para>

      <example>

      <title><command>systemd-analyze dot [<replaceable>pattern</replaceable>...]</command></title>

      <para>This command generates textual dependency graph description in dot format for further processing
      with the GraphViz
      <citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>dot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
      tool. Use a command line like <command>systemd-analyze dot | dot -Tsvg >systemd.svg</command> to
      generate a graphical dependency tree. Unless <option>--order</option> or <option>--require</option> is
      passed, the generated graph will show both ordering and requirement dependencies. Optional pattern
      globbing style specifications (e.g. <filename>*.target</filename>) may be given at the end. A unit
      dependency is included in the graph if any of these patterns match either the origin or destination
      node.</para>

      <example>
        <title>Plot all dependencies of any unit whose name starts with <literal>avahi-daemon</literal>
        </title>

        <programlisting>$ systemd-analyze dot 'avahi-daemon.*' | dot -Tsvg >avahi.svg
$ eog avahi.svg</programlisting>
      </example>

      <example>
        <title>Plot the dependencies between all known target units</title>

        <programlisting>$ systemd-analyze dot --to-pattern='*.target' --from-pattern='*.target' \

      </example>
    </refsect2>

    <refsect2>
      <title><command>systemd-analyze unit-paths</command></title>

      <para>This command outputs a list of all directories from which unit files, <filename>.d</filename>
      overrides, and <filename>.wants</filename>, <filename>.requires</filename> symlinks may be
      loaded. Combine with <option>--user</option> to retrieve the list for the user manager instance, and
      <option>--global</option> for the global configuration of user manager instances.</para>

      <example>
        <title><command>Show all paths for generated units</command></title>

        <programlisting>$ systemd-analyze unit-paths | grep '^/run'
/run/systemd/system.control

/run/systemd/system
/run/systemd/system.attached
/run/systemd/generator
/run/systemd/generator.late
</programlisting>
      </example>

      <para>Note that this verb prints the list that is compiled into <command>systemd-analyze</command>
      itself, and does not communicate with the running manager. Use
      <programlisting>systemctl [--user] [--global] show -p UnitPath --value</programlisting>
      to retrieve the actual list that the manager uses, with any empty directories omitted.</para>
    </refsect2>

    <refsect2>
      <title><command>systemd-analyze exit-status <optional><replaceable>STATUS</replaceable>...</optional></command></title>

      <para>This command prints a list of exit statuses along with their "class", i.e. the source of the
      definition (one of <literal>glibc</literal>, <literal>systemd</literal>, <literal>LSB</literal>, or
      <literal>BSD</literal>), see the Process Exit Codes section in
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
      If no additional arguments are specified, all known statuses are are shown. Otherwise, only the
      definitions for the specified codes are shown.</para>

      <example>
        <title><command>Show some example exit status names</command></title>

      <para>This command will evaluate <varname index="false">Condition*=...</varname> and
      <varname index="false">Assert*=...</varname> assignments, and print their values, and
      the resulting value of the combined condition set. See
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
      for a list of available conditions and asserts.</para>

      <example>

      <title><command>systemd-analyze calendar <replaceable>EXPRESSION</replaceable>...</command></title>

      <para>This command will parse and normalize repetitive calendar time events, and will calculate when
      they elapse next. This takes the same input as the <varname>OnCalendar=</varname> setting in
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.timer</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
      following the syntax described in
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. By
      default, only the next time the calendar expression will elapse is shown; use
      <option>--iterations=</option> to show the specified number of next times the expression
      elapses. Each time the expression elapses forms a timestamp, see the <command>timestamp</command>
      verb below.</para>

      <example>

      on the command line will be loaded, but also any other units referenced by them. The full unit search
      path is formed by combining the directories for all command line arguments, and the usual unit load
      paths (variable <varname>$SYSTEMD_UNIT_PATH</varname> is supported, and may be used to replace or
      augment the compiled in set of unit load paths; see
      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>).  All
      units files present in the directories containing the command line arguments will be used in preference
      to the other paths.</para>

      <title><command>systemd-analyze security <optional><replaceable>UNIT</replaceable>...</optional></command></title>

      <para>This command analyzes the security and sandboxing settings of one or more specified service
      units. If at least one unit name is specified the security settings of the specified service units are
      inspected and a detailed analysis is shown. If no unit name is specified, all currently loaded,
      long-running service units are inspected and a terse table with results shown. The command checks for
      various security-related service settings, assigning each a numeric "exposure level" value, depending
      on how important a setting is. It then calculates an overall exposure level for the whole unit, which
      is an estimation in the range 0.0…10.0 indicating how exposed a service is security-wise. High exposure
      levels indicate very little applied sandboxing. Low exposure levels indicate tight sandboxing and
      strongest security restrictions. Note that this only analyzes the per-service security features systemd
      itself implements. This means that any additional security mechanisms applied by the service code
      itself are not accounted for. The exposure level determined this way should not be misunderstood: a
      high exposure level neither means that there is no effective sandboxing applied by the service code
      itself, nor that the service is actually vulnerable to remote or local attacks. High exposure levels do
      indicate however that most likely the service might benefit from additional settings applied to
      them.</para>

      <para>Please note that many of the security and sandboxing settings individually can be circumvented —
      unless combined with others. For example, if a service retains the privilege to establish or undo mount
      points many of the sandboxing options can be undone by the service code itself. Due to that is
      essential that each service uses the most comprehensive and strict sandboxing and security settings
      possible. The tool will take into account some of these combinations and relationships between the
      settings, but not all. Also note that the security and sandboxing settings analyzed here only apply to
      the operations executed by the service code itself. If a service has access to an IPC system (such as
      D-Bus) it might request operations from other services that are not subject to the same
      restrictions. Any comprehensive security and sandboxing analysis is hence incomplete if the IPC access
      policy is not validated too.</para>

        positional arguments, they must match at least one side of the
        relation. In other words, patterns specified with those two
        options will trim the list of edges matched by the positional
        arguments, if any are given, and fully determine the list of
