Usage notesFrom DTRAC, you can use the next> and <pre hyperlinks at the top of the view to display details for the next or previous trace record (the 1000 record limit does not apply to DTRAC). When you reach the beginning or end of the records, the following message is issued:

BBMXBD15I There is no data that satisfies your request.

Note

If you use PF3 to leave DTRAC after using the next> or <pre hyperlinks, you are returned to the STRAC tabular view where you started, not to the trace record from which you last navigated.

Group EIP data

When a user issues a trace request (GROUPEIP=Y | N), multiple EIP calls can be merged into one displayed line with no intervening traced events, as shown in the following table:

Field name

Description

Event

Grouped EIP calls with a numeric indicator (n) as to the number of grouped events

Time

Time in seconds relative to the first event

Elapsed

Total of all elapsed events

CPU

Total of all CPU time for individual events

Stg

Total storage utilization for individual events

Detail

Shows any changes in a value if that value stops a grouping

Event data

The following tables summarize the events collected for a detail trace. The responses for these events can be

  • OK
  • Abnormal condition
  • Waits (I/O, IRC, EXC)
