The DCTRACE command displays or prints a summary of the last 250 requests or results of the specified network support processor (NSP). The summary includes such items as request type, associated logical station number (LSN), line number, the DLS number, and associated error values.
The DCTRACE option of the ID (Initialize Data Comm) system command determines whether the system audits NSP traffic. If the DCTRACE option was not ON at the time of the dump, the DCTRACE command in DUMPANALYZER returns the following message:
NSP DOES NOT HAVE A TRACE TABLE
Syntax
── DCTRACE ──<relative NSP number>─────────────────────────────────────┤
Explanation
Lists the last 250 requests or results in the order in which they were processed by the DCCONTROL stack of the specified NSP. Requests and results are interspersed in the summary.
