TRACE PROCESS Command
keyword
is subsystem-specific. See Table 4-5 for the list of keywords that can be used 
for the PROCESS objects.
number
is the numeric value that a keyword represents. See Table 4-5 for the list of 
numbers that can be used for the PROCESS objects
TO file-spec
specifies the file to which trace information is to be written. The file might have 
been previously created as an unstructured file with file code 830. An old file is 
purged of data before the trace is initiated. If the file does not exist, a file is created 
with an extent size based upon the number of PAGES specified.
WRAP
specifies that when the trace disk file end-of-file mark is reached, trace data wraps 
around to the beginning of the file and overwrites any data there.
Considerations
•
If TO 
file-spec
 is specified, a new trace is initiated unless the file-spec is 
invalid, the file cannot be opened, or trace is already active for the IOP.
•
If TO 
file-spec
 and STOP are both omitted, the TRACE command modifies the 
trace currently in progress, if any.
•
If TO 
file-spec
 is omitted and STOP is specified, the TRACE command stops the 
trace currently in progress, if any.
•
The parameters COUNT, RECSIZE, and SELECT can be changed during an 
ongoing trace. Other trace parameters cannot be modified during an ongoing trace.
