NAME
----
lttng-set-session - Set the current LTTng tracing session


SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
*lttng* ['linkgenoptions:(GENERAL OPTIONS)'] *set-session* 'SESSION'


DESCRIPTION
-----------
The `lttng set-session` command sets the current tracing session of your
Unix user to the tracing session named 'SESSION'.

See man:lttng-create(1) to learn more about the current tracing session.

The following man:lttng(1) commands select the current tracing session
if you don't specify one:

* man:lttng-add-context(1)
* man:lttng-clear(1)
* man:lttng-destroy(1)
* man:lttng-disable-channel(1)
* man:lttng-disable-event(1)
* man:lttng-disable-rotation(1)
* man:lttng-enable-channel(1)
* man:lttng-enable-event(1)
* man:lttng-enable-rotation(1)
* man:lttng-regenerate(1)
* man:lttng-rotate(1)
* man:lttng-save(1)
* man:lttng-snapshot(1)
* man:lttng-start(1)
* man:lttng-status(1)
* man:lttng-stop(1)
* man:lttng-track(1)
* man:lttng-untrack(1)
* man:lttng-view(1)

The `set-session` command effectively updates the `$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc`
file.

List the tracing sessions of your Unix user with the man:lttng-list(1)
command.
