journalctl命令来自于英文词组“journal control”的缩写,其功能是用于查看指定的日志信息。在RHEL7/CentOS7及以后版本的Linux系统中,Systemd服务统一管理了所有服务的启动日志,带来的好处就是可以只用journalctl一个命令,查看到全部的日志信息了。

语法格式: journalctl [参数]

常用参数:

-k查看内核日志
-b查看系统本次启动的日志
-u查看指定服务的日志
-n指定日志条数
-f追踪日志
--disk-usage查看当前日志占用磁盘的空间的总大小

参考实例

查看系统中全部的日志信息:

[root@linuxcool ~]# journalctl
