Work with trace
Trace files show the time and sequence of methods called by WAS base classes, and you can use these files to pinpoint the failure. Collecting a trace is often requested by IBM technical support personnel. If you are not familiar with the internal structure of WAS, the trace output might not be meaningful to you.
- Configure an output destination to which trace data is sent.
- Enable trace for the appropriate WAS or application components.
- Run the application or operation to generate the trace data.
- Analyze the trace data or forward it to the appropriate organization for analysis.
