Answer

To run the updateTracing_610 action, complete the following steps:

1. From the TEP (Tivoli Enterprise Portal), navigate to the Services Management Agent workspace.
2. In the Data Collector Global Configuration table, right-click the row in
the table for the data collector to be configured and select Take Action
-> Select to display the Take Action window.


3. Under Action, click the Name field to display the list of available actions
for this agent.
4. From the list of available actions, click updateTracing_610.

5. The Command field in the Take Action window is filled in with the
command syntax. Click Arguments to display the Edit Argument Values
window.
6. For the TraceOnOff argument, edit the value to On or Off.

7. After editing the argument, click OK. The Edit Argument Values window
is closed, and you are returned to the Take Action window, with the
updated tracing criteria now included in the Command field.
8. The Destination System(s) field contains one or more target systems
where you can send the command. Click the desired system name and
then click OK.
9. The Action Status window displays the resulting return code. Click OK
to close the window. The Take Action window also closes.

After turning on tracing, trace information for the associated data collector is
written to the trace log until it is turned off.
