CSM problem diagnosis z/OS Communications Server: SNA Network Implementation Guide SC27-3672-01 |

You can obtain trace output of application requests to CSM by using
the CSM option on the VTAM® internal trace (VIT)
or, when VTAM is not active,
the GTF trace facility.
CSM tracing records the parameter list information that flows across the CSM interface and key internal events (such as pool expansion and contraction) for functions that manipulate buffer states. This allows you to trace and analyze the usage history of a buffer. The number of trace records required to represent one IVTCSM request is variable based on the number of buffer operations requested. Because the information required to trace one IVTCSM request may span several CSM trace records, you can use the trace record flag field to determine whether additional trace records exist for a particular IVTCSM request. If the first bit in the trace record flag field is set on, the trace record is continued. If the VIT is not active, multiple trace records for an IVTCSM request could be interspersed with trace records of IVTCSM requests from other users. A unique trace record number is provided to correlate the continuation trace records for each IVTCSM request. For more information about tracing events over the CSM API, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Diagnosis Vol 1, Techniques and Procedures. |
