Debugging options for CIMOM
The
You can enable or disable debugging for CIMOM using the Brocade SMI Agent Configuration Tool. If you enable debugging, trace statements are logged to a trace file with the following name format:
jserverlog_<month & date>_<Hour & Mins>.trace
For example, jserverlog_1017_1655.trace is the trace file for 4:55 p.m. on October 17.
Whenever the CIMOM server is restarted, a new trace file is generated with the timestamp of when the server starts.
The location of this log file is the folder from which the SMIA server is started. It is usually the folder that contains the start_server script:
On Linux, Solaris, and AIX:<SMIAgent>/agent/server/jserver/bin
On Windows:<SMIAgent>\agent\server\jserver\bin
Configuring debugging options for CIMOM
1.Launch the Brocade SMI Agent Configuration Tool.
2.Click CIMOM in the menu tree (see Figure 23 on page 38).

Selecting NO LOG disables logging. Selecting any value other than NO LOG enables logging.
