7.3.45 TRACE_FILE_SIZE parameter (defines the size of a file to which traces are output)
Syntax
#-adsh_conf TRACE_FILE_SIZE file-size
Description
This parameter defines the size of a file to which traces are output.
Operands
- file-size ~<unsigned integer>((1 to 16))<<2>>
Specifies in megabytes the size of a file to which traces are to be output. The normal specification value is 2.
Notes
If this parameter is defined in both the system environment file and the job environment file, the definition in the job environment file takes effect. If the TRACE_DIR parameter value is the same as the value specified in the system environment file, specifying a different value in this parameter results in an error (even when the system environment file's default value is assumed).
Supplementary information
If multiple users output trace logs to the same file, the largest TRACE_FILE_SIZE parameter value specified by any of the users takes effect.
If the TRACE_FILE_SIZE parameter value is changed in the environment file, the new value is compared with the existing value for the number of trace files and whichever is larger is used.
To reduce the file size, delete all files from the trace folder (make sure that no job is outputting traces to the trace files when you delete files from the trace folder).
We recommend that all users who output traces to the same file use the same parameter values.
