Managing SNAplus2 Clients

Managing Win32 Clients

The maximum size of the trace file. If two file names are specified, tracing switches between the two files when the current file reaches this size. If only one file name is specified, this parameter is ignored; the file size is not limited.

This parameter is optional. If it is not specified, the default is 1000000 (bytes).

truncation_length

The Registry data type of this value is REG_DWORD. The maximum length, in bytes, of the information written to the trace file for each message. If a message is longer than this, SNAplus2 writes only the start of the message to the trace file, and discards the data beyond truncation_length. This enables you to record the most important information for each message but avoid filling up the file with long messages.

This parameter is optional. If it is not specified, SNAplus2 does not truncate messages (all the data from each message is written to the file).

all_api

The Registry data type of this value is REG_SZ.

To trace messages for all APIs, set this parameter to YES. In this case, SNAplus2 ignores the parameters from appc through nof.

To disable tracing for all APIs, set all_api and all of the parameters from appc through nof to NO.

To trace only messages for specific APIs, set all_api to NO, and use the parameters from appc through nof to indicate which APIs to trace.

This parameter is optional. If it is not specified, the default is NO.

appc

The Registry data type of this value is REG_SZ.

To trace APPC API messages, set this parameter to YES; otherwise, set it to NO.

This parameter is optional. If it is not specified, the default is NO. If the all_api parameter is set to YES, this parameter is ignored, and APPC messages are traced.
