Turning traces on and off in servers processes using scripting

 

Procedure

1. Start wsadmin

2. Identify the object name for the TraceService MBean running in the process:

   • Jacl

     $AdminControl completeObjectName type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*
     

   • Jython

     AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*')
     

3. Obtain the name of the object and set it to a variable:

   • Jacl

     set ts [$AdminControl completeObjectName type=TraceService,process=server1,*]
     

   • Jython

     ts = AdminControl.completeObjectName('type=TraceService,process=server1,*')
     

4. Turn tracing on or off for the server. For example:

   • To turn tracing on, perform the following step:

     • Jacl

       $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.*=all=enabled
       

     • Jython

       AdminControl.setAttribute(ts, 'traceSpecification', 'com.ibm.*=all=enabled')
       

   • To turn tracing off, perform the following step:

     • Jacl

       $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.*=all=disabled
       

     • Jython

       AdminControl.setAttribute(ts, 'traceSpecification', 'com.ibm.*=all=disabled')
