Configure traces using scripting

 

Procedure

1. Start wsadmin

2. Identify the server and assign it to the server variable:

   • Jacl:

     set server [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/]
     

   • Jython

     server = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/')
     print server
     

   Example output

   server1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#Server_1)
   

3. Identify the trace service belonging to the server and assign it to the tc variable:

   • Jacl:

     set tc [$AdminConfig list TraceService $server]
     

   • Jython

     tc = AdminConfig.list('TraceService', server)
     print tc
     

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#TraceService_1)
   

4. Set the trace string. The following example sets the trace string for a single component:

   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig modify $tc {{startupTraceSpecification com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled}}
     

   • Jython

     AdminConfig.modify(tc, [['startupTraceSpecification',  'com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled']])
     

5. The following command sets the trace string for multiple components:

   • Jacl:

     $AdminConfig modify $tc {{startupTraceSpecification com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.runtime.*=all=enabled}}
     $AdminConfig save
     

   • Jython

     AdminConfig.modify(tc, [['startupTraceSpecification',  'com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.runtime.*=all=enabled']])
     

6. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node.
