NAME

ash-logs - show logs for an ash background VM

DESCRIPTION

Shows journal entries from the latest invocation of the transient user systemd unit that owns an ash background VM. Logs from older processes that reused the same unit name are excluded.

OUTPUT

Each journal entry is printed as [YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS] MESSAGE. Hostname, process name, and process ID metadata are omitted.

OPTIONS

By default, ash shows the 100 most recent entries. Use --lines=N or -n N to choose a different number.

With --follow or -f, journalctl continues waiting for new entries until interrupted.

BACKGROUND UNITS

ash logs reads the ash-NAME.service user unit created by background spawn flows. Foreground attached VMs do not run in this unit.

EXAMPLES

ash logs work
ash logs --lines 250 work
ash logs -f work

Generated from ash Cmdliner manpage metadata.
