SYNOPSIS
i7z [OPTION] , [OPTION] is optional. i7z needs to be run in super user (root) mode.
DESCRIPTION
i7z runs the i7z, ncurses based, program without any options. i7z will print out the C-states and temperature for i3, i5 and i7 based Core processors from Intel (including Nehalems, Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge).
OPTIONS
-h,
--help
show the list of options available with the i7z
tool.
-w [a|l], --write [a,l]
Logging of the frequencies can
be turned on
with this options. Option "-w a" or "--write
a" will append to the log
file. Option "-w l" or "--write l" will
replace the log file.
-l, --logfile [FILENAME]

specified
FILENAME. Default logging file is cpu_freq_log.txt (single
socket) or
cpu_freq_log_dual%d.txt (dual socket, %d is either 0, 1).
--socket0 [SOCKETNUM], --socket1 [SOCKETNUM]
The tool
can print
information for about 2 sockets at once at the most. The top
view will
be, by default, of the first socket (controlled by
--socket0) and the
bottom view will be of the second socket (controlled by
--socket1).
Supply the appropriate value of 0 or 1 or more for SOCKETNUM
(if there
are more sockets on the machine) to show in the top and
bottom view.
--nogui
Disable the GUI. Useful when the only need is
logging.
Example
To print for two sockets and also change the log file (log to /tmp/logfilei7z)
i7z --socket0 0 --socket1 1 -logfile /tmp/logfilei7z -w l
