Run a Trace

Running a trace can help you troubleshoot problems. CA Access Control writes trace records to the seos.trace file, which is located in the ACInstallDir/log directory.

To run a trace

  1. Remove all records from the trace file: 
    secons -tc
  2. Start the trace: 
    secons -t+
  3. Recreate the problem.
  4. Stop the trace: 
    secons -t-
  5. Review the trace file.

Note: The configuration settings in the seosd section configure the trace file. For more information about the seosd section, see the Reference Guide.
