Example: Setting up profiles to make tracing easier when scripting

Set up a profile to make tracing easier. The following profile example turns tracing on and off:

proc ton {} {
  global AdminControl
  set ts [lindex [$AdminControl queryNames type=TraceService,*] 0]
  $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.=all=enabled
} 

proc toff {} {
  global AdminControl
  set ts [lindex [$AdminControl queryNames type=TraceService,*] 0]
  $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.*=all=disabled
} 

proc dt {} {
  global AdminControl
  set jvm [lindex [$AdminControl queryNames type=JVM,*] 0]
  $AdminControl invoke $jvm dumpThreads 
} 

If you start the wsadmin tool with this profile, you can use the ton command to turn on tracing in the server, the toff command to turn off tracing, and the dt command to dump the Java threads. For more information about running scripting commands in a profile, see the Launching Scripting Clients article.
