Configure traces using scripting

Use wsadmin.sh and scripting to configure traces for a configured server. See the starting the wsadmin scripting client information.

Perform the following steps to set the trace for a configured server:

Procedure

1. Identify the server and assign it to the server variable:

   ### Jacl

   set server [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/]
   

   ### Jython

   server = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/')
   print server 

   Example output:

   server1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#Server_1)
   

2. Identify the trace service belonging to the server and assign it to the tc variable:

   ### Jacl

   set tc [$AdminConfig list TraceService $server]
   

   ### Jython

   tc = AdminConfig.list('TraceService', server)
   print tc
   

   Example output:

   (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1|server.xml#TraceService_1)
   

3. Set the trace string. The following example sets the trace string for a single component:

   ### Jacl

   $AdminConfig modify $tc {{startupTraceSpecification
   com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled}}
   

   ### Jython

   AdminConfig.modify(tc, [['startupTraceSpecification',
   'com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled']])
   

4. The following command sets the trace string for multiple components:

   ### Jacl

   $AdminConfig modify $tc {{startupTraceSpecification
   com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.
   management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.runtime.*=all=enabled}}
   

   ### Jython

   AdminConfig.modify(tc, [['startupTraceSpecification',
   'com.ibm.websphere.management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.
   management.*=all=enabled:com.ibm.ws.runtime.*=all=enabled']])
   

5. Save the configuration changes. See the saving configuration changes with wsadmin.sh information.

6. Synchronize the node. See the synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool information.
