Tracing Adaptive Services or MultiServices PIC Operations

Tracing operations track all adaptive services operations and record them in a log file. The logged error descriptions provide detailed information to help you solve problems faster.

By default, no events are traced. If you include the traceoptions statement at the [edit services adaptive-services-pics] or [edit services logging] hierarchy level, the default tracing behavior is the following:

Important events are logged in a file called serviced located in the /var/log directory.
When the file serviced reaches 128 kilobytes (KB), it is renamed serviced.0, then serviced.1, and so on, until there are three trace files. Then the oldest trace file (serviced.2) is overwritten. (For more information about how log files are created, see the JUNOS System Log Messages Reference.)
Log files can be accessed only by the user who configures the tracing operation.

You cannot change the directory (/var/log) in which trace files are located. However, you can customize the other trace file settings by including the following statements:



file filename <files number> <size size> <(world-readable
| no-world-readable> <match regex>;
flag {
all;
command-queued;
config;
handshake;
init;
interfaces;
mib;
removed-client;
show;
}

You configure these statements at the [edit services adaptive-services-pics traceoptions] or [edit services logging traceoptions] hierarchy level.

These statements are described in the following sections:
