6.6.19.3.3: Disabling server traces with the Web console

During this task, you will turn tracing off, which will deactivate the trace specification while preserving the trace string contained in the trace specification field.

The server receives two pieces of information that instruct it how to trace -- the trace string specification and the trace enablement flag. If tracing is not enabled, the server ignores the trace string and instead disables tracing for all components.

To disable tracing:

  1. In the tree on the left side of the console, click Nodes -> hostname -> Application Servers -> Trace Service. The trace service properties will be displayed on the right side of the console.
  2. Click Enable Trace String so that the check box is not checked.
  3. Click OK.
  4. If the server is already running, click Send to have the setting take effect immediately.

    Otherwise, if the server is not running:

    1. Save your configuration.
    2. To have the configuration take effect:

      1. Stop the server
      2. Start the server again.
