Determining the Subsystem
Determining the Subsystem
PTrace uses the device type (61) and subtype (63) to determine the hardware interface
for which it is formatting records. PTrace reads this information when it opens the trace
file.
PTrace Commands
You use PTrace commands to format trace files generated by a subsystem. Some
PTrace commands are common to all subsystems, and others are subsystem-specific.
This subsection describes only those details of the PTrace commands used to format
trace files generated by X25AM.
Table 6-1 describes the PTrace commands that can be used with the X25AM
subsystem. For additional information about these commands, see the PTrace
Reference Manual.
