Set up profile scripts to make tracing easier using wsadmin scripting

We can use scripting and wsadmin.sh to set up profile scripts to facilitate tracing.

See Start the wsadmin scripting client using wsadmin.sh for more information.

Procedure

Set up a profile script to make tracing easier. The following profile script example turns tracing on and off for server1:

### Jacl

proc ton {} {
  global AdminControl
  set ts [$AdminControl queryNames type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*]
  $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.=all=enabled


proc toff {} {
  global AdminControl
  set ts [$AdminControl queryNames type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*]
  $AdminControl setAttribute $ts traceSpecification com.ibm.*=all=disabled


proc dt {} {
  global AdminControl
  set jvm [$AdminControl queryNames type=JVM,node=mynode,process=server1,*]
  $AdminControl invoke $jvm dumpThreads

### Jython

def ton():
       global lineSeparator
       ts = AdminControl.queryNames('type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*')

       AdminControl.setAttribute(ts, 'traceSpecification', 'com.ibm.=all=enabled')

def toff():
       global lineSeparator
       ts = AdminControl.queryNames('type=TraceService,node=mynode,process=server1,*')

       AdminControl.setAttribute(ts, 'traceSpecification', 'com.ibm.*=all=disabled')

def dt():
       global lineSeparator
       jvm = AdminControl.queryNames('type=JVM,node=mynode,process=server1,*')
       AdminControl.invoke(jvm, 'dumpThreads')

If you start wsadmin.sh with this profile script, you can use the ton command to turn on tracing in the server, the toff command to turn off tracing, and the dt command to dump the Java threads. For more information about running scripting commands in a profile script, see Start the wsadmin scripting client using wsadmin.sh.
