Parameter descriptions

 

If you do not specify a trace type to be started, the default (GLOBAL) trace is started. The types are:

ACCTG

Collects accounting data that can be used to charge your customers for their use of your queue manager. The synonym is A.

Accounting data can be lost if the accounting trace is started or stopped while applications are running. For information about the conditions that must be satisfied for successful collection of accounting data, see the WebSphere MQ for z/OS System Setup Guide.

CHINIT

This includes data from the channel initiator. The synonym is CHI or DQM. If tracing for the channel initiator is started, it stops if the channel initiator stops.

Note that we cannot issue START TRACE(CHINIT) if the command server or the channel initiator is not running.

GLOBAL

This includes data from the entire queue manager except the channel initiator. The synonym is G.

STAT

Collects statistical data broadcast by various components of WebSphere MQ, at time intervals that can be chosen during installation. The synonym is S.

CMDSCOPE

This parameter specifies how the command is executed when the queue manager is a member of a queue-sharing group.

CMDSCOPE cannot be used for commands issued from the first initialization input data set CSQINP1.

‘ ’

The command is executed on the queue manager on which it was entered. This is the default value.

qmgr-name

The command is executed on the queue manager you specify, providing the queue manager is active within the queue-sharing group.

We can specify a queue manager name, other than the queue manager on which the command was entered, only if you are using a queue-sharing group environment and if the command server is enabled.

COMMENT(string)

Specifies a comment that is reproduced in the trace output record (except in the resident trace tables). It can be used to record why the command was issued.

string is any character string. It must be enclosed in single quotation marks if it includes a blank, comma, or special character.
