Automation Engine Rolling Trace v12 syntax

Products

• CA Automic Workload Automation - Automation Engine

Issue/Introduction

Automation Engine v12 introduced memory tracing, therefore there is an additional keyword to set log rotation.

Environment

Component: Automation Engine

Cause

Rolling trace syntax from v11 and older should not be used in v12 because it will repeatedly switch the Trace type between "FILE" and "MEMORY" whenever the trace turns on and off.

!
! Turn On
!
!Set a TCP/IP=2 and DB=4 trace on the WPs
!Get System Name

:SET &TRC# = GET_UC_SYSTEM_NAME()

!Turn on tracing for WPs

:SET_UC_SETTING SET_TRACE, &TRC#, "2400000000000000", "FILE"

!Turn on tracing for single CP - Before # sign is the System name, after # sign is CPxxx where xxx is the CP number

!Example:

:SET_UC_SETTING SET_TRACE, "UC4#CP001", "9000000000000000", "FILE"
:SET_UC_SETTING SET_TRACE, "UC4#CP002", "9000000000000000", "FILE"
:SET_UC_SETTING SET_TRACE, "UC4#CP003", "9000000000000000", "FILE"

!Set a TCP/IP=9 trace on the Agent - <Agent Name> needs to change to reflect actual agent
!Turn on tracing

:SET_UC_SETTING SET_TRACE, "<Agent Name>", "9000000000000000", "FILE"
