Release Information

Statement introduced in JUNOS Release 7.6.

Description

Define tracing operations for op scripts.

Default

If you do not include this statement, no op-script-specific tracing operations are performed.

Options

filename—Name of the file to receive the output of the tracing operation. All files are placed in the directory /var/log. By default, op script process tracing output is placed in the file op-script.log. If you include the file statement, you must specify a filename. To retain the default, you can specify op-script.log as the filename.

files number—(Optional) Maximum number of trace files. When a trace file named trace-file reaches its maximum size, it is renamed trace-file.0, then trace-file.1, and so on, until the maximum number of trace files is reached. Then the oldest trace file is overwritten.

If you specify a maximum number of files, you also must specify a maximum file size with the size option and a filename.

Range: 2 through 1000
Default: 10 files

flag—Tracing operation to perform. To specify more than one tracing operation, include multiple flag statements. You can include the following flags:

size size—(Optional) Maximum size of each trace file, in kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), or gigabytes (GB). When a trace file named trace-file reaches this size, it is renamed trace-file.0. When trace-file again reaches its maximum size, trace-file.0 is renamed trace-file.1 and trace-file is renamed trace-file.0. This renaming scheme continues until the maximum number of trace files is reached. Then the oldest trace file is overwritten.

If you specify a maximum file size, you also must specify a maximum number of trace files with the files option and filename.

Syntax: xk to specify KB, xm to specify MB, or xg to specify GB
Range: 128 KB through 1 GB
Default: 128 KB

no-world-readable—Restrict file access to owner. This is the default.

world-readable—Enable unrestricted file access.
