Manually configuring Advanced debugging
Advanced debugging, including Transport and IPMON tracing, requires adding parameters to the APPLET tag in the HTML file. You can add these parameters using the Advanced Options > Problem Determination window of the Deployment Wizard. However, you may decide to add them manually by directly editing the HTML code. Take the following steps to add the parameters manually:
Transport trace
The TraceOptions parameter has already been added to the APPLET tag of the
client with problem
determination ( defaultdebug.html), but is commented out. Use a text
editor to uncomment the IPMonitor parameter to use the parameter with
either of these clients.
|
You can only use the Deployment Wizard to edit files that you have created with the Deployment Wizard. You cannot use the Deployment Wizard to edit the client with problem determination. |
To add the TraceOptions parameter to HTML files you have created without
using the Deployment Wizard, use a text editor to edit the HTML file. The session must
first include the problem determination components. Change:
<APPLET archive="hod.jar,sccbase.jar" CODE="com.ibm.eNetwork.HOD.HostOnDemand.class" WIDTH=584
HEIGHT=450>
to:
<APPLET archive="hoddbg.jar,sccbase.jar" CODE="com.ibm.eNetwork.HOD.HostOnDemand.class" WIDTH=584
HEIGHT=450>
and add add the following parameter to the applet tag:
<PARAM NAME=TraceOptions VALUE="[<option_tag=<option_value>,...]">
For example,
<PARAM NAME=TraceOptions VALUE="SaveLocation=Local,OutputFile=c:\temp\trace.tlg,HOD.Session=3">
would start the trace facility, trace the HOD.session
module at level 3, and save the trace file to c:\temp\trace.tlg
on the client.
|
|
Enclose the string that follows VALUE= in quotes. Without
quotes, the Z and I Emulator for Web server stops parsing the string as soon as
it reaches a space. This may cause some of the TraceOptions
settings you want to set to be discarded by the Z and I Emulator for Web
server. |

Z and I Emulator for Web components that can be traced. Contact HCL Service for which modules to trace. The numbers 1, 2 and 3 indicate the type of message logged: 1 for Informational, 2 for Warning and 3 for Error. |
| Save Location |
SaveLocation=Server,Local
|
Determines if the trace file is saved on the client machine or on the Z and
I Emulator for Web server machine. If SaveLocation is not specified, the trace
file is saved on the Z and I Emulator for Web server machine in the
private directory as
SVRLOGANDTRACE.[user_name].user, where
user_name is the user ID used to logon to the Z and I
Emulator for Web session. |
| Local output file |
OutputFile=x:\filename.trc
|
Specifies the trace file name and location when
SaveLocation=Local. When
SaveLocation=Server, the file is saved to the Z and I
Emulator for Web server in the private directory as
SVRLOGANDTRACE.[user_name].user, where
user_name is the user ID used to logon to the Z and I
Emulator for Web session. |
| Number of trace entries |
NumberOfTraceEntries=1024
|
Limits the number of trace entries in the trace file. |
IPMON trace
The IPMonitor parameter has already been added to the APPLET tag of the
client with problem
determination ( defaultdebug.html), but is commented out. Use a text
editor to uncomment the IPMonitor parameter to use the parameter with
either of these clients.
|
|
You can only use the Deployment Wizard to edit files that you have created with the Deployment Wizard. You cannot use the Deployment Wizard to edit the client with problem determination. |
To add the IPMonitor parameter to HTML files you have created without
using the Deployment Wizard, use a text editor to edit the HTML file. The session must
include the problem determination components. Change:
<APPLET archive="hod.jar,sccbase.jar" CODE="com.ibm.eNetwork.HOD.HostOnDemand.class" WIDTH=584
HEIGHT=450>
to:
<APPLET archive="hoddbg.jar,sccbase.jar" CODE="com.ibm.eNetwork.HOD.HostOnDemand.class" WIDTH=584
HEIGHT=450>
and add the following parameter to the applet tag:
<PARAM NAME=IPMonitor VALUE="[<option_tag=<option_value>,...]">
For example,
<PARAM NAME=IPMonitor VALUE="SessionName=My Session,TraceFile=c:\mydirectory\trace.trc">
adds the option Start Session with IPMonitor to the menu when you right click the icon for
the session named "3270 to myhost" on the Z and I Emulator for Web desktop. Selecting this
option starts the session and also starts IPMonitor. The trace file is saved to
c:\mydirectory\trace.trc
.
|
|
Enclose the string that follows VALUE= in quotes. Without
quotes, the HTML parser stops parsing the string as soon as it reaches a space.
This may cause some of the IPMonitor settings you want to set
to be discarded by the HTML parser. |
There is also a sample file, ipmon.html that can show you how to use this
parameter. It is located in the x:\zieforweb\lib\samples\IPMonitor
directory.
| Trace Option | Supported Values | Description |
|---|---|---|
SessionName
|
Any session name available on the Z and I Emulator for Web desktop, spelled exactly as it appears in the session properties, and as it is displayed below the session icon. | Specifies the name of the session that you want to have started along with IPMonitor. If no session name is specified, IPMonitor can be run by all 3270 display, 5250 display, and VT display sessions defined for the Z and I Emulator for Web desktop you logged on to. |
TraceFile
|
Any valid file name. | Specifies the trace file name that the IPMonitor trace is saved to. If no file name is specified, IPMonitor saves the trace file to output.tlg in the path specified in the JVM system property "user.dir". |
When you select Start Session with IPMonitor from the session icon's start menu, the IPMonitor v1.0 for Java, automatic mode appears first, and then the session starts.
