6.6.28.3: Administering IBM Object Level Trace and Distributed Debugger with the Web console

Use the Web console to manage tracing and step-through debugging of the applications running in your application server runtime. These configurations specify settings for using IBM Object Level Trace (OLT) and IBM Distributed Debugger (DD).

Work with objects of this type by locating them in the tree on the left side of the console:

Nodes -> hostname -> Application Servers
-> application_server_name -> IBM Debug and OLT

Follow this procedure to enable and configure OLT and Debugger support in the server runtime:

  1. Open the OLT properties dialog.
  2. Use the OLT properties to:

    • Enable the IBM Distributed Debugger.
    • Specify the "source path" if you know that the source files of your application reside in a different directory than your class files. The source path is the list of directories that contain the source files of your application.
    • Enable Object Level Tracing.
    • Provide the hostname of the machine when the OLT and debugger user interface will be running.
    • Set the OLT server port to the default value of 2102.
  3. Save the changes.
  4. Start the application server.
