10.3. SYSTRACE

The system trace can be examined by issuing the SYSTRACE command from the IPCS subcommand entry panel. Issuing the SYSTRACE command on its own will display trace entries associated with the dumped ASID only. Issuing the SYSTRACE ALL command will display all system trace entries. To display the time field in local time, add the TIME(LOCAL) parameter. A complete system trace command is as follows:

SYSTRACE ALL TIME(LOCAL)
