linux中tailf命令详解,linux tailf命令详解
linux tailf命令是跟tail -f命令几乎等同的一个命令，那么它具体用途是怎样的呢?下面由学习啦小编为大家整理了linux tailf命令的相关知识，希望对大家有帮助!
一、linux tailf命令用途说明
tailf命令几乎等同于tail -f，严格说来应该与tail --follow=name更相似些。当文件改名之后它也能继续跟踪，特别适合于日志文件的跟踪(follow the growth of a log file)。与tail -f不同的是，如果文件不增长，它不会去访问磁盘文件(It is similar to tail -f but does not access the file when it is not growing. This has the side effect of not updating the access time for the file, so a filesystem flush does not occur periodically when no log activity is happening.)。
tailf特别适合那些便携机上跟踪日志文件，因为它能省电，因为减少了磁盘访问嘛(tailf is extremely useful for monitoring log files on a laptop when logging is infrequent and the user desires that the hard disk spin down to conserve battery life.)。tailf命令不是个脚本，而是一个用C代码编译后的二进制执行文件，某些Linux安装之后没有这个命令，本文提供了怎么编译安装tailf命令的方法。
二、linux tailf命令常用参数
格式：tailf logfile
动态跟踪日志文件logfile，最初的时候打印文件的最后10行内容。
三、linux tailf命令使用示例
示例一 使用tailf命令跟踪日志
