+ <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.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze time</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>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze blame</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.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze critical-chain
+ [<replaceable>UNIT...</replaceable>]</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 one service might depend on
+ socket activation and because of the parallel execution of
+ units.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze plot</command> prints an SVG
+ graphic detailing which system services have been started at what
+ time, highlighting the time they spent on initialization.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze dot</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>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze dump</command> outputs a (usually
+ very long) human-readable serialization of the complete server
+ state. Its format is subject to change without notice and should
+ not be parsed by applications.</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze set-log-level
+ <replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable></command> changes the current log
+ level of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to
+ <replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
+ <option>--log-level=</option> described in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze set-log-target
+ <replaceable>TARGET</replaceable></command> changes the current log
+ target of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to
+ <replaceable>TARGET</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
+ <option>--log-target=</option>, described in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
+
+ <para><command>systemd-analyze verify</command> will load unit files and print
+ warnings if any errors are detected. Files specified 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>
+
+ <para>If no command is passed, <command>systemd-analyze
+ time</command> is implied.</para>

+ <para>Each of these can be used more than once, in which case

+ both tests to be shown. When patterns are also specified as
+ 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
