Starting an application trace

When you start an application trace you should begin by checking the current traces.

To start an application trace

  1. From the EZDB2 easy menu, select the Current Traces option in the Thread Activity section.The CT view lists all current traces. The Status column indicates whether the trace is active and collecting data from Db2, or already completed but not yet purged. You will return here later to view your own trace.
