Redirecting scrutinize output

By default, scrutinize uses the temporary directory /opt/vertica/tmp execution to compile output while it executes. On completing its collection, it saves the collection to a tar file to the current directory. You can redirect scrutinize output with two options:

--tmpdir=path

Directs temporary output to the specified path, where the following requirements apply to path:

• The directory must have at least 1 GB of free space.

• You must have write permission to it.

--output_dir=path
-o path

Saves scrutinize results to a tar file in path. For example:

$ scrutinize --output_dir="/my_diagnostics/"
