[dtrace-discuss] forward output from Dtrace to database

[Adam Leventhal]

Hi Jack,

DTrace has an undocumented freopen() action that redirects its output to a
given file, and the documented system() action that can invoke arbitrary
commands. Would it be possible to have a script that dumps its output to a
temporary file and then invokes some command or script that forwards that
output to your database?
