13.1 Obtaining Debugging Output

Identity Manager Fan-Out driver components support the option to produce extensive debugging output. Although this output is intended primarily for use by Novell Technical Support, you might find it useful for your own troubleshooting efforts.

Because debugging mode adversely affects performance, it should not be used for routine operations.

13.1.1 z/OS Platform Services Process

To start debugging output from ASCLIENT, enter the following:

MODIFY ASCLIENT,TRACE ON

To stop debugging output, enter the following:

MODIFY ASCLIENT,TRACE OFF

You can also start ASCLIENT with PARM=’TRACE’ to obtain debugging output. ASCLIENT debugging output is written to ddname ASCLOG.

13.1.2 z/OS Platform Receiver

To produce debugging output from the z/OS Platform Receiver, start PLATRCVR with PARM=’d*’. PLATRCVR debugging output is written to ddname SYSDEBUG.
