Clearing old information from trace files

If the component that you are tracing has stopped, you can delete its trace files from the log subdirectory of the IBM® Integration Bus home directory.

About this task

If you are tracing an integration server, you can use the -r parameter of the mqsichangetrace command to reset (clear) the trace log (the -r parameter can be specified only if you specify the -e parameter). You might clear the log when you start a new trace, to ensure that all the records on the log are unique to the new trace.

Example: clearing the user trace log for the default integration server

About this task

To clear the user trace log for the default integration server, on distributed systems, enter the command: mqsichangetrace WBRK_BROKER -u -e default -r where:
WBRK_BROKER specifies the name of the integration node
-u specifies user trace
-e specifies the integration server (in this case the default integration server)
-r clears the trace log
