Log file output 

The 

--gpumode

 

command writes GPU mode update information to a log file named 

setgpumode.txt

. By default 

gpumodeswitch

 

creates the log file in the current working 

directory (if the current working directory is writable). To change the path on which the 
log file is written, use the 

--outfilepath

 option: 

# gpumodeswitch --gpumode graphics --outfilepath /tmp 

 



Note:

 when using the bundled Linux bootable images (see section 2.4), the system 

boots into a read-only file system. Log files can be generated by using the 

outfilepath

 option to write the log files into 

/tmp

 
The log file summarizes the command execution: 

# more /tmp/setgpumode.txt

LINUX BOOTABLE IMAGES 

If your server platform is not running one of the
