Using formatted trace reports

If you specify FUNCTION=PRINT, the output of the Trace Format utility is a set of reports. This section discusses the reports in the order that the Trace Format utility usually writes them to the output data set.

The Trace Format utility can produce the following types of reports:

  • IMS Trace Header Information

  • DB2 Trace Header Information

  • IMS Trace Detail Information

  • DB2 Trace Detail Information

  • DB2 Trace Trailer Information

  • IMS Trace Trailer Information

  • Trace Summary

If you specify FORMAT=YES, one report is present for each selected record. Unless you sort the trace data set before processing with the Trace Format utility, IMS and DB2 Trace Detail Information reports for individual calls are listed in the order that they were issued by the application program.

If you specify FORMAT=DUMP, the records are formatted as a hexadecimal dump.
