HSM_DEBUG_FILE=.

Debugs can occupy a lot of disk space when troubleshooting an unpredictable problem.

Linux specific

On Linux platform, if you need more disk space than available in the /var/opt/fse/log/debug directory, change your working directory to /var/opt/fse/log and create a symbolic link to a location with more disk space. To achieve this, run the following commands:

#mkdir /tmp/BIG_DISK

#cd /var/opt/fse/log

#rmdir debug

#ln -s /tmp/BIG_DISK debug

Windows specific

On Windows platform, if you need more disk space than available in the

%InstallPath%\var\log\debug directory, you can prepare a separate disk volume and mount it to this directory. Before mounting ensure that the directory is empty.

HSM_DEBUG_FLAGS

Select the detailed information you want to log in the debug trace files. Use multiple letters if you want different items to be logged:

Option value

Description

 

 

I

Function in & out — log FSE function entries and exits.

 

Note that this type of logging will create large debug files.

 

 

N

No header — print no header in the trace output line.

 

 

C

Compact — print compact headers in the trace output line.

 

This is the recommended type of logging.

 

 

T

Exception throw — log exception throwing events in the trace output.

 

 

E

Error logging — log errors in the trace output also.

 

Linux specific

 

By default, errors are only logged to the file

 

/var/opt/fse/log/error.log.

 

Windows specific

 

By default, errors are only logged to the file

 

%InstallPath%\var\log\error.log.

 

The value of %InstallPath% depends on the choice made in the FSE

 

installation process. It defaults to

 

C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE.

 

 

V

Verbose third-party debugs — produce verbose omniORB debugging

 

information.

 

 

O

Log only the specified level — cause the debugging level specified by the

 

HSM_DEBUG_LEVEL variable to omit the debugging information from the

 

lower levels (which would normally be included).
