Communications tracing

Communications tracing during TCP/IP initialization is controlled by the KDC_DEBUG environment variable.

To obtain the level of tracing required for the TCP/IP initialization messages to be recorded in the RAS1 log, add the string KDC_DEBUG=Y to &rhilev.&rte.RKANPARU(KppENV). You can also set the KDC_DEBUG variable dynamically by using the Service Console bss1 command.

Possible values for KDC_DEBUG are:
Y
The data flow between the monitoring agent and the monitoring server during TCP/IP initialization is recorded, including data packages sent and received. When KDC_DEBUG=Y is active in the environment during initialization of TCP/IP services for this address space, you can confirm successful initialization of TCP/IP by looking for one of the following messages in RKLVLOG:
"KDE1I_OpenTransportProvider") Transport opened: socket/ip.tcp 
"KDE1I_OpenTransportProvider") Transport opened: socket/ip.pipe 
"KDE1I_OpenTransportProvider") Transport opened: socket/ip.udp 
N
The data flow between the monitoring agent and the monitoring server during TCP/IP initialization is not recorded. This is the default and the recommended setting for normal operation.
D
Full packet tracing plus STATE and FLOW tracing.
M
D plus INPUT and OUTPUT Help tracing.
