Host trace level

Use the "Host trace level" panel to set the trace level for the host functions. Tracing provides more detailed information on the msys for Setup processing than the reports do. There are separate traces for the workstation and the host processing on each z/OS system. You set the trace level for the workstation and for the z/OS systems separately. See Workstation trace level for setting the workstation trace.

Before you begin:

Steps to set the host trace level:

  1. Click Options --> Preferences... on the menu. The "Workplace preferences" panel is displayed.
  2. Click the "Host trace level" tab.
  3. To set the trace level drag the slider to the desired position between "No trace" (level 0) and "Full trace" (level 9). While you move the slider, the current level and an explanation of what is traced at that level are displayed to the left of the slider scale.
  4. Click OK or click the "Workstation trace level" tab to also set the workstation trace level.
