Minimum Configuration for Enabling and Viewing Traceoptions Output

If no commit script trace options are configured yet, the simplest way to view the trace output of a commit script is to configure the output trace flag and issue the show log cscript.log | last command. To do this, perform the following steps:

  1. If you have not done so already, enable a commit script by including the file statement at the [edit system scripts commit] hierarchy level:
    [edit system scripts commit]
    file filename;
  2. Enable trace options by including the traceoptions flag output statement at the [edit system scripts commit] hierarchy level:
    [edit system scripts commit]
    traceoptions flag output;
  3. Issue the commit command:
    [edit]
    user@host# commit
  4. Display the resulting trace messages recorded in the file /var/log/cscript.log. At the end of the log is the output generated by the commit script you enabled in Step item. To display the end of the log, issue the show log cscript.log | last operational mode command:
    [edit]
    user@host# run show log cscript.log | last

Table 14 summarizes useful filtering commands that display selected portions of the cscript.log file.
