This section provides step-by-step instructions for using Probekit in standalone mode on zSeries®.
To use Probekit in standalone mode, the Agent Controller must be installed on the target system. The data collection agent and the extension library for Probekit are automatically installed with the Agent Controller.
Follow these steps to run your application using Probekit in standalone mode:
<racInstallDir>/lib <racInstallDir>/plugins/com.ibm.rational.pd.probekit/lib
-XrunpiAgent:server=standalone, mode=none, extensionLibrary=ProbeAgentExtension.so, ext-pk-BCILibraryName=BCIEngProbe.so, ext-pk-probescript=<myProbe>.probescriptwhere <myProbe> is the name of your probe's .probescript file.
Option | Description |
---|---|
ext-pk-logFile=<file> | Specifies the name of the file you want the Probekit agent to write log messages to. <file> can be a full path and filename. If you specify stderr instead of a filename, the log output will be written to the standard error channel. If this option is not specified, no log output is written. |
ext-pk-logLevel=<level> | Specifies the logging level you want to use. See the table below for the logging levels and their descriptions. |
Level | Description |
---|---|
none | No log output. |
severe | Logs only severe errors, such as unable to load libraries. |
warning | Logs warning messages. This level is the default. |
info | Logs status messages, such as "Initializing". |
config | Logs configuration events and information, such as the contents of the .probescript file. |
finest | Maximum log output. The log file will contain the name of every class that is instrumented by the Probekit agent. |
