serel - fast boot software

serel visualisation service

Home Visualisation Documentation Download News Mailing Lists

The visualisation service lets you see inside the boot process.

When a computer boots with serel, it generates a log file that includes descriptions of:

the services that started,
how long each service ran, and
how the services depend on one another at boot-time.

Visualisation shows you at a glance what services are being started, and helps you understand how to make the computer boot faster. To proceed:

find the log file on your computer - /etc/sysconfig/serel will tell you where to look
copy and paste the log file into the form below, or

select submit to work with the small example.

Enter the serel-generated xml/rdf file from your computer (sample shown): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:serel="http://www.fastboot.org/2002/03/serel-schema#" xmlns:graph="http://www.fastboot.org/2002/03/graph-schema#" xmlns="http://www.fastboot.org/2002/03/graph-schema#" > <graph rdf:ID="graph2" graph:directed="#true" serel:version="0.3.1" serel:created="2002-04-25 15:30:00" > <nodes> <rdf:Bag> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#keytable" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#sendmail" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#sshd" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#syslog" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#network" /> </rdf:Bag> </nodes> <edges> <rdf:Bag> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#edge-syslog-sendmail" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#edge-network-sendmail" /> <rdf:li rdf:resource="#edge-network-sshd" /> </rdf:Bag> </edges> </graph> <node rdf:ID="keytable" graph:weight="2.26" /> <node rdf:ID="sendmail" graph:weight="8.95" /> <node rdf:ID="sshd" graph:weight="3.12" /> <node rdf:ID="syslog" graph:weight="1.46" /> <node rdf:ID="network" graph:weight="9.54" /> <edge rdf:ID="edge-syslog-sendmail" > <source rdf:resource="#syslog"/> <target rdf:resource="#sendmail"/> </edge> <edge rdf:ID="edge-network-sendmail" > <source rdf:resource="#network"/> <target rdf:resource="#sendmail"/> </edge> <edge rdf:ID="edge-network-sshd" > <source rdf:resource="#network"/> <target rdf:resource="#sshd"/> </edge> <rdf:Description about="graph2" serel:base_os_release="Red Hat Linux release 7.1 (Seawolf)" serel:package_owning_rc="initscripts-5.83-1" /> </rdf:RDF>
