-The `lttng metadata` command manages a tracing session's metadata
-generation options.
-
-As of this version, only the `regenerate` command's action is available.
-Regenerating a tracing session's metadata can be used to
-resample the offset between the system's monotonic clock and
-the wall-clock time.
-
-This command is meant to be used to resample the wall-clock time
-following a major

-correction. As such, a system booting with an incorrect wall time can be
-traced before its wall time is NTP-corrected. Regenerating the tracing
-session's metadata ensures that trace viewers can accurately determine
-the events time relative to Unix Epoch.
+WARNING: This command is **deprecated**; it has been replaced by
+`lttng regenerate metadata` (see man:lttng-regenerate(1)).
