Abstract
Traces capture diagnostic information required for problem solving.
This document is a collection of documents that provide instructions for gathering various traces on App Connect Enterprise (ACE), IBM Integration Bus (IIB), and related products/technologies.
Content
These traces are available for App Connect Enterprise (ACE) v11 and v12.
Integration Node
An Integration Node "admin agent" manages Integration Servers. It is also called a "broker" or "bipbroker" process.

Switch Server
The Switch Server is used for callable message flows.
Commands
The ACE command-line commands can be traced either as a flag on the command or with a "Utility" trace.

Databases
Message flows can connect to a database via either JDBC or ODBC.

Security
Java™ Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) is used in ACE for the HTTPRequest and SOAPRequest nodes.
OpenSSL technology is used in ACE for the embedded and Node HTTP listeners.

SOAP
Additional tracing can be enabled for SOAP interactions (SOAPInput, SOAPRequest, SOAPReply, and related WS functionality).
Java™
Many IIB components utilize a JVM.
