Start-SbecSimpleLogSession is accessible with the help of BootEventCollector module. To configure BootEventCollector, go through this link.
Synopsis
Starts a log session with the forwarding of events to the Collector.
Description
The Start-SbecSimpleLogSession cmdlet starts a log session in boot event mode with a simpler subset of parameters.
To start a log session with more parameters, use Start-SbecLogSession.
Parameters
-BufferSize
Specifies the buffer size for the session, in kilobytes. This is the size of one buffer, with the count of these buffers set by the MinimumBufferCount and MaximumBufferCount parameters.
| Type: | UInt32 |
| Position: | 6 |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-ClockType
Specifies the type of clock used for the events collected by this session: The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- Default.
- QueryPerformanceCounter. The high-resolution (period of 100 nanoseconds) clock that is typically used for performance measurement.
- SystemTime. The lower-resolution system time similar to FILETIME (period of 10 milliseconds). This value is most typical for the data collection through SBEC.
- CpuCycleCounter. The highest-resolution, with the frequency of the CPU, but may be unreliable depending on the CPU model and the thermal and power modes.
| Type: | ClientContext |
| Accepted values: | Default, QueryPerformanceCounter, SystemTime, CpuCycleCounter |
| Position: | 5 |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-FlushSeconds
Specifies the timeout, in seconds, for the session buffers to automatically flush. You can disable the flushing of buffers on timeout by setting this parameter to 0, then the buffers will be written only when full or on an explicit flush.
| Type: | UInt32 |
| Aliases: | FlushTimer |
| Position: | 9 |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-KernelEnableFlags
Specifies flags for the NT Kernel Logger that enable the kernel events. For the setup and boot monitoring, the only reasonable flag is Process. This enumeration type is defined in $PsHome\Modules\BootEventCollector\SbecTraceHelpers.psm1. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- None
- Process
- Thread
- ImageLoad
- ProcessCounters
- ContextSwitch
- Dpc
- Interrupt
- SystemCall
- DiskIO
- DiskFileIO
- DiskIOInit
- Dispatcher

- Profile
| Type: | EventTraceFlag |
| Accepted values: | None, Process, Thread, ImageLoad, ProcessCounters, ContextSwitch, Dpc, Interrupt, SystemCall, DiskIO, DiskFileIO, DiskIOInit, Dispatcher, MemoryPageFaults, MemoryHardFaults, VirtualAlloc, NetworkTCPIP, Registry, Alpc, SplitIO, Driver, FileIO, FileIOInit, Profile |
| Position: | 11 |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-Level
Specifies the highest detail level value to enable for providers. This enumeration type is defined in $PsHome\Modules\BootEventCollector\SbecTraceHelpers.psm1. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- Undefined
- Fatal
- Error
- Warning
- Information
- Verbose
- All
| Type: | SeverityLevel |
| Accepted values: | Undefined, Fatal, Error, Warning, Information, Verbose, All |
| Position: | 4 |
| Default value: | None |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-LogFileMode
Specifies the new flags for the log file mode. The EnableKd and DisableKd values parameters are applied on top of these flags. This enumeration type is defined in $PsHome\Modules\BootEventCollector\SbecTraceHelpers.psm1. The cmdlet automatically adds the RealTime and KdFilter values to this parameter. Other frequently used flags for this context are:
- Secure. Restricts who can log events to the session to those with TRACELOG_LOG_EVENT permission.
- UsePagedMemory. Use the paged memory for the buffers.
- NoPerProcessorBuffering. Write the events from all processors to the same buffer. This preserves the order of the events, and is recommended for sending the events to the event collector.
The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- None
- FileNone
- FileSequential
- FileCircular
- FileAppend
- FileNewFile
- Reserved0x00000010
- FilePreallocate
- Nonstoppable
- Secure
- RealTime
- DelayOpenFile
- Buffering
- PrivateLogger
- AddHeader
- UseKilobytesForSize
- UseGlobalSequence
- Relog
- PrivateInProc
- BufferInterface
- KdFilter
- RealtimeRelog
- LostEventsDebug
- StopOnHybridShutdown
- PersistOnHybridShutdown
- UsePagedMemory
- SystemLogger
- Compressed
- IndependentSession
- NoPerProcessorBuffering
- Blocking

- AddToTriageDump
- Fatal
- Error
- Warning
- Information
- Verbose
- All
