Configuration pane elements

The Configuration pane in the Management Console used for dynamic adapter tracing consists of the elements required to enable tracing and configure the trace specifications. The following table lists the components and provides a description of their use.

Configuration Pane Elements
Description
Config
The Config pane contains a pull-down menu where you can select either of the following two configuration options:
  • Trace

    The Trace configuration option indicates that you want to configure dynamic adapter tracing.

    When you select Trace, the trace configuration for the selected Launcher will appear.

  • Logging

    The Logging configuration option indicates that you want to configure dynamic logging.

Systems
The Systems pane contains a pull-down menu where you can select the path and system file for the Launcher process.
Components
The Components pane contains all the map components in the Launcher system, which you can configure individually. It is the list of all top-level map components running in that Launcher process for the selected system.

When you select a map, only the trace settings for that selected map will appear. When you select a different map, a different set of trace settings will appear.

All RUN maps associated with that component will use the same settings.

Only information for a running system will be available for configuration, not for a stopped system.

Settings
The Settings pane comprises the Trace and Action panes, which are used to configure trace settings for each of the components in the Components pane.
Trace
The Trace pane contains radio buttons for the following three adapter trace setting options:
  • Default

    The Default adapter trace setting option indicates that the Launcher will use the settings on the adapter command line for a map configured in the Map Designer or the Integration Flow Designer.

    The Default option is the default adapter trace setting.

  • ON

    The ON adapter trace setting option enables adapter tracing for all adapters for a map.

    This setting overrides any setting on the adapter command line for a map configured in the Map Designer or the Integration Flow Designer.

  • OFF

    The OFF adapter trace setting option disables adapter tracing for any adapter.

    This setting overrides any setting on the adapter command line for a map configured in the Map Designer or the Integration Flow Designer.

Action
The Action pane contains two sub-elements related to the output adapter trace file:

Adapter trace file option

Allows you to configure how you want the trace content to be written.

There are two radio buttons for the adapter trace file options:

  • Create

    When the Create option is selected, the map will write all the trace information to a new trace file.

  • Append

    When the Append option is selected, the map will write all the trace information to a new trace file or append the trace information to an existing file.

File Name

Allows you to configure the trace file name and location.

See "Using Wildcards" for information about using wildcards in your trace file name.

Apply
The Apply button is used to refresh the Launcher with the settings associated with the component.

The adapter trace configuration changes for the component will be passed to the Launcher process, and will take effect when the next map is initiated for the configured component.
Note: These dynamic adapter trace configurations are not saved anywhere.
