TRACE
The TRACE command displays the server activity as it occurs. TRACE displays on the terminal all
IMAGE and File System intrinsic calls that a server is executing. The display consists of the
following information:
• The time the call was executed
• The server ID number
• The intrinsic being serviced
For IMAGE calls, it also displays:
• The mode parameter
• The return status
• The fully qualified base name
• The set name or number (in brackets)
For File System calls, it also displays:
• The condition word
• The fully-qualified file name
Tracing to the terminal will continue until <Ctrl-Y> is entered or the remote user process terminates.
This command requires NODE MANAGER(NM) or SYSTEM MANAGER(SM) capability.
Note. This command may slow down the user process associated with the server being
traced. Also, the BREAK key is disabled while tracing.
