   <bmchttp>
       <rrlog value="OFF" />
       <trace value="ON">
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_ACTION" value="TRACEACTION_WARNING" />
           <!-- BMC_PARM    ID='TRACE_ACTION'
                       VALUE='TRACEACTION_INFO' /-->
           <!-- BMC_PARM    ID='TRACE_ACTION'
                       VALUE='TRACEACTION_ENTRYEXIT' /-->
           <!-- BMC_PARM    ID='TRACE_ACTION'
                       VALUE='TRACEACTION_Control' /-->
           <!-- BMC_PARM    ID='TRACE_ACTION'
                       VALUE='TRACEACTION_MEMORY' /-->

           <!-- BMC_PARM   ID='TRACE_ACTION'
                       VALUE='TRACEACTION_WAIT' /-->
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_SERVER" />
           <!--BMC_PARM    ID='TRACE_COMPONENT'
                       VALUE='TRACECOMPONENT_SERVER_WL' /-->
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_CLIENT" />
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_REQUEST" />
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_EXTENSION" />
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_TASKMGR" />
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_TASKWKR" />
           <!-- BMC_PARM   ID='TRACE_COMPONENT'
                       VALUE='TRACECOMPONENT_LOGTASK' /-->
           <bmc_parm id="TRACE_COMPONENT" value="TRACECOMPONENT_EXTERNAL" />
       </trace>
   </bmchttp>

   
   

2. Ensure that the overall trace option is enabled.If the overall trace option is enabled, the variable is displayed as follows:

   <trace value="ON">
   

3. If the overall trace option is not enabled, edit the variable as required to enable it.

To enable specific tracing options

1. From the list of specific tracing options, find the option that you want to enable.

   <!-- BMC_PARM ID='TRACE_ACTION' VALUE='TRACEACTION_INFO' /-->
   

2. Remove commenting characters after the opening angle bracket (!-- and space) and before the closing bracket (--) so that the line looks like this:

   <BMC_PARM ID='TRACE_ACTION' VALUE='TRACEACTION_INFO' />
   

To disable specific tracing options
