Job debug setting does not write output in Report in Unix Agents

Issue/Introduction

In Unix/Linux Agent 11.2 and inferior, the Agent trace flag "Job Debug" would instruct the AE to create job debug information in the Report (REP) of the Unix/Linux job.

In AE v12.x or superior, after setting the trace flag ""Job Debug" the job output is missing the information, we can only see the regular job output.

Environment

Release : 12.x and 21.x

Fix version:
Component(s): Agent Unix

Automation.Engine 21.0.4 - Available

Additional Information

Solution details: If job trace was turned on for the Unix Agent job trace information was not written to the job report and a part of the job's traces were written to the Unix Agent's trace.
Now, job traces are written to the Agent trace file until the job report file is opened. Once the file is opened job traces are written to that file and, hence, can be found in the job's report.
