Altering an AOM CTRACE without using an external output writer

To alter an AOM CTRACE without using an external output writer, perform the steps shown in the following example. This example will trace for JOBNAME AOMV2 and for ASID 3F. It is possible to selectively trace up to 16 JOBNAMES and 16 ASIDs.

  1. Issue the operator TRACE command and reply to the resulting message.
    TRACE CT,ON,COMP=SYSAOM    
    *05 ITT006A SPECIFY OPERAND(S) FOR TRACE CT COMMAND.  
    R 5,JOBNAME=(AOMV2),ASID=(3F),END
  2. Display the trace information for SYSAOM.
    DISPLAY TRACE,COMP=SYSAOM  
    You should see a response similar to this example:
    RESPONSE=SYSTEM1                                                
     IEE843I 16.46.07  TRACE DISPLAY 810                            
             SYSTEM STATUS INFORMATION                              
      ST=(ON,0001M,00001M) AS=ON  BR=OFF EX=ON  MO=OFF MT=(ON,999K) 
       COMPONENT     MODE BUFFER HEAD SUBS                          
      --------------------------------------------------------------
       SYSAOM        ON                                             
          ASIDS      003F                                           
          JOBNAMES   AOMV2                                          
          OPTIONS    YES                                            
          WRITER     *NONE*  
  3. Restore AOM CTRACE to its normal trace level using the TRACE command.
    TRACE CT,OFF,COMP=SYSAOM 
  4. If the input source to IPCS is to be a dump, issue the following command:
    F DEVMAN,DUMP 
  5. Issue the IPCS CTRACE COMP(SYSAOM) subcommand and set the input source to either the dump created in the step above or to active.
    CTRACE COMP(SYSAOM) FULL LOCAL
