Logging Fileshare Messages: CCI Trace
CCI Trace enables all the messages sent by CCI to be logged to a file. This can help in tracking down and debugging problems related to communications.
CCI Trace is enabled through the Consolidated Tracing Facility (CTF); additionally, to trace CCI activity through the Fileshare Server, add the following to the Fileshare Server configuration file:
/tr cci
To prevent unauthorized access to the CCI Trace information, you are prompted for the supervisor password when you invoke a Fileshare Server with CCI Trace enabled. If the password is accepted, CCI Trace is enabled and a second prompt asks if CCI Trace should be activated immediately or not.
- The supervisor password is that specified for the user-ID FSVIEW in the password file, so you must specify the appropriate password file when you start the Fileshare Server.
- CCI Trace can be toggled on and off using the F3 key.
- The CCI trace options are specified via the CCITRACE environment variable.
