traceoptions (Extensions)

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Trace options for extension-service applications. You can set the traceoptions statement for the application level or for the file script-name level or for both. If the traceoptions statement is set for both the application and file script-name levels, the latter will have a higher priority.

Note:

Global traceoptions for daemonized applications do not take effect if the daemonized application and global traceoptions are committed separately

Options

file

Indicate trace file information.

`filename`	Name of the file to receive the tracing operation output. Enclose the name in quotation marks. Traceoption output files are located in the /var/log/ directory.
`files number`	(Optional) Specify maximum number of trace files. Range: 2 through 1000 Default: 3
`size size`	(Optional) Specify the maximum size of each trace file. When a trace file named `trace-file` reaches its maximum size, it is renamed `trace-file.0`. The traceoption output continues in a second trace file named `trace-file.1`. When `trace-file.1` reaches its maximum size, output continues in a third file named `trace-file.2`, and so on. When the maximum number of trace files is reached, the oldest trace file is overwritten. Range: 10240 through 1073741824 Default: 128k
`world-readable \| no-world-readable`	(Optional). Grant all users permission to read log files, or restrict the permission only to the root user and users who have Junos OS maintenance permission.

`notification`	Trace notification events.
