IBM ORB debug logging

Question & Answer


Question

 Does the IBM ORB support debug logging?

Answer

The IBM ORB supports debug logging.

Note:

The debug logging is enabled when IBM Support requests IBM ORB debug logs

The debug logging is disabled after data collection is completed.

The IBM ORB debug logging is enabled as follows.

UNIX only:
Edit $OMNIHOME/probes/java/nco_p_<probe>.env file and add or update the NCO_JPROBE_JAVA_FLAGS setting:
NCO_JPROBE_JAVA_FLAGS="-Dcom.ibm.CORBA.Debug=true -Dcom.ibm.CORBA.CommTrace=true -Dcom.ibm.CORBA.Debug.Output=$OMNIHOME/log/ibm_orb_trace.log $NCO_JPROBE_JAVA_FLAGS"


If the nco_p_<probe>.env script does not exist, create a new file, and add the entry.


The output log file 'ibm_orb_trace.log' with be overwritten on probe startup.
Ensure the probes Retry property is set to “false” to avoid overwriting the log file.
The probe is run from the command line.

Note : 'nco_p_<probe>' would be a probe name like 'nco_p_huawei_M2000_corba'.
