SET TRACE

Use the SET TRACE command to change the tracing parameters of the Provisioning Manager. You can set a default trace level and also separate trace levels for individual trace components. Setting the default trace level does not overwrite a trace level set for an individual component.

Note:

This command is to be used only if instructed to do so by IBM® service personnel.

Parameters

The parameter names and trace values are not case-sensitive. This command has the following parameters:

LEV

Name of the trace level you want to activate. The following trace levels are supported:

OFF: Do not trace
SEVERE: Trace severe information
WARNING: Trace warnings or severe information
INFO: Trace general information
FINER: Trace at a finer information level
ALL: Trace all information

COMP

The name of a component of the Provisioning Manager for which you want to alter the trace level. The supported component names are:

BASE: Base processing
UTIL: Utility classes
POLICY: Policy-relevant processing
CONFIGURATION: Domain configuration-relevant processing
ANALYZER: Analysis of the metrics retrieved from the observed systems
PLANNER: Processing that is relevant to planning
CONSOLESERVER: Command processing
CIMOBSERVER: CIM requests processing
CIMCLIENT: CIM client API

If COMP is not specified, the overall trace level is changed.

Example

To set the global trace level to ALL, issue the following command:

MODIFY CPOSERV,APPL=SET TRACE LEV=ALL

or:

F CPOSERV,APPL=S T LEV=ALL

The response on the console might be:

CPO1060I The global trace level has been set to ALL
