seedup: retrieve trace table entries.

Syntax

seedup parameter parameter . .

Retrieves diagnostic trace table entries from running SEPs in a region.

When work is performed by a region, the SEPs insert diagnostic information into memory-based local trace tables. The seedup command harvests these trace tables and brings them together into a single output file. An event monitor process is used to broker the requests to the SEPs, to return their local trace table information.

By default, the event monitor on the local machine is used to retrieve trace tables for all SEPs for all regions. However, you can use command line parameters to customize this process.

Parameters

-nobanner: Do not display utility welcome and copyright messages.
-region:<region-name>: Name of the region to retrieve trace entries from.
-server:<machine-name>[:<port>]: The name of the machine where an event monitor is running, that will co-ordinate the trace retrieval process. Specify <port> if the event monitor on the target machine is not listening on the default 9186 port.; The default is localhost:9186.

-usedb:<database-server-instance>

Name of the database server instance that hosts the region database. For example:

Default database server on the local machine:	`-usedb`
Default database server on the local machine, identical to `-usedb`:	`-usedb:(local)`
Specific database server on the local machine:	`-usedb:(local)\SQLEXPRESS`
Default database server instance on a specific machine (SC1 used in example)	`-usedb:SC1`
Specific database server instance on a specific machine (SC1, SQLEXPRESS used in example for machine name, database server name)	`-usedb:SC1\SQLEXPRESS`

Note: Parameter values are not case sensitive.

-verbose: The command output displays all of the messages that the command generates.
