Requesting a stack trace for a thread
You can request a stack trace for a thread on the Thread detail summary (THRDDTLZ) and Thread Contention (THRDCON) views. The requested trace is saved to the stack trace path that is specified in the TRACEPATH parameter in MJEINI00. You can temporarily update the stack trace path, as explained in the following procedure:
To temporarily update the stack trace path
On the THRDDTLZ or THRDCON view, type PATh on the command line.
The Change Trace Path Directory dialog displays the current stack trace path. If you previously updated the stack trace path, this value differs from the TRACEPATH value that is specified in MJEINI00.
+------------------------ Change Trace Path Directory ------------------------+
| COMMAND ===> SCROLL ===> PAGE |
| |
| Stack Trace path: |

| /shrd/mjeqa/out33 |
| |

| UPDate to update a stack trace path |
| CANcel to exit the dialog |
| HELP to display help |
| |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+- Update the path to which you want to save the stack trace and type UPDate on the command line.
When you restart the MVJE PAS, the stack trace path reverts to the value specified for TRACEPATH in MJEINI00. For more information, see Defining-product-initialization-parameters.
To request a stack trace
