Managing SNAplus2 Clients
Managing Win16 Clients
The full path name of the trace file, or of the first trace file if tracing is to two files (see the description of the file2 parameter).
This parameter is required if you want to enable message tracing; you also need to set the fmi parameter.
file2
The full path name of the second trace file. This parameter is optional. To indicate that tracing is to one file instead of two files, do not include this line.
If both file1 and file2 are specified, tracing is to two files. When the first file reaches the size specified by flip_size, the second file is cleared, and tracing continues to the second file. When this file then reaches the size specified by flip_size, the first file is cleared, and tracing continues to the first file. This ensures that tracing can continue for long periods without using excessive disk space; the maximum space required is approximately twice the value of the flip_size parameter.
flip_size
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 100000 (bytes).
truncation_length
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).
