how to read the trace file

[jw]

Currently, I am with CMOD 8.5 and I have a problem with arsload and failing on indexing.  So, I use arsload with -1 (to create trace file).

According to IBM CMOD 8.5 manual, I can use arsadmin trace to convert the trace file to a readable file format.

However, when I try to run arsadmin trace, it says "trace" is not a valid option.  Has anyone have any idea?

Thanks in advance.

Hello jw,

I don't know where did you read that, because the command to read the log file is called:

Code Select Expand

arstfmt

ARS1028I Usage: arstfmt -i <in_file> [-o <out_file>] [-c] [-t | -x]
Version:  9.5.0.0
-c Output File Codepage (defaults to system codepage)
-f Continue to monitor the file for more data
-i <in_file> Input File
-o <out_file> Output File (defaults to stdout)
-t Text Output (default)
-x XML Output
-1 <trace_file> Trace file
-2 <trace_level> Trace level

Hi Alessandro,

Thanks for the info.  I will try that.

I read it from this manual "Content Manager OnDemand for Multiplatforms 8.5.0"

and it is under arsadmin command.

Trace. Converts the trace that is generated by any Content Manager OnDemand command into a readable XML file.
