Trace Options

Use trace options only under the direction of Technical Support to locate problems. The log file containing the trace data is created in the local directory. The filename is named lg-<procname>-<procid>.log where <procname> name of the program running, the AEF or the load module, and <procid> is the process number of the program running. For example, lg-aef-163574.log. A trace value determines the level of information logged to the file. Trace values range from 0 to 31, where 0 provides the least information and 31 provides the most information. The exact amount of information stored by each value may vary from release to release.

Increasing the trace value also increases the file size. A trace value of 31 may consume a large amount of disk space that can significantly slow processing. Use trace options carefully in production systems.
