prfget [-a] [-f {_tr|_nm|_xr|_pr|_mc|_fl|_jl|_lk}]

The prfget command gets the trace information stored in the prf trace file. The range to be obtained starts right after the last information was obtained, and ends with the information when the command is entered.

-a

Obtains all trace information stored in the prf trace file. Usually, with the newest ID, the command obtains only the trace information that has not so far been obtained; but, this option enables you to get the trace information with an old run ID.

-f {_tr|_nm|_xr|_pr|_mc|_fl|_jl|_lk}

Obtains event trace information.

_tr: Obtains TRN event trace information.

_nm: Obtains NAM event trace information.

_xr: Obtains XAR event trace information.

_pr: Obtains event trace information for a process service.

_mc: Obtains MCF performance verification trace information.

_fl: Obtains FIL event trace information.

_jl: Obtains JNL performance verification trace information.

_lk: Obtains LCK performance verification trace information.

Do not specify this option unless you want to obtain event trace information. Also, do not specify for this option any argument other than _tr, _nm, _xr, _pr, _mc, _fl, _jl, or _lk. For details on how to collect event trace information, see the description of event traces in the manual OpenTP1 Description.

• This command can only be used if TP1/Extension 1 is installed. Operation is guaranteed only when TP1/Extension 1 is installed.
• If the information going back to the previous trace has been lost, the command starts obtaining the oldest available information that has not already been obtained, up to the information when the command is entered.
• When the prfget command succeeds in getting the trace information, it stores the last position by creating an inheritance file^#. If it fails to create an inheritance file, it might obtain trace information that was already obtained.
• Two or more prfget commands cannot be run simultaneously.

#: The contents of the inheritance file are the same as the file header of the last-output prf file.
