Enabling CTF Tracing for MFBSIEMX

MFBSIEMX, the Event Manager user exit for MFBSI is CTF-enabled. Its activity can be traced using the Micro Focus Consolidated Tracing Facility. Use the following procedure to enable tracing for MFBSIEMX:

Create a text file using this sample:

# MFTRACE configuration file

#mftrace.emitter.textfile#Format = $(TIME) $(THREAD) $(COMPONENT) $(EVENT) $(LEVEL) :$(DATA)
#mftrace.emitter.textfile#location = C:\MicroFocus\ProjectName\ES_JCL\MFBSI\ES-MFBSI

mftrace.dest                     = binfile
mftrace.emitter.binfile#location = C:\MicroFocus\ProjectName\ES_JCL\MFBSI\ES-MFBSI

mftrace.level                 = none
mftrace.level.mfbsi           = info
mftrace.comp.mfbsi.emx#all    = true

Replace C:\MicroFocus\ProjectName\ES_JCL\MFBSI\ES-MFBSI with your CTF trace files folder.

Access your configuration information and add the line MFTRACE_CONFIG=[Full_Location_of_CTF_cfg.file] to your configuration file.
For example:

MFTRACE_CONFIG=C:\MicroFocus\ProjectName\ES_JCL\MFBSI\ES-MFBSI\ctf.cfg
Stop and restart your enterprise server.

In the CTF folder, verify that a file named casevmgr.textfile.log exists. The file created is based on the emitter selection. In Windows, the bin file can be examined with the CTF Viewer.
