196.4.2.3 FlagTracer (FLAGTR)

With the FlagTracer it is possible to trace a call or a connection in CP and PP. The FlagTracer is switched on as default.

FlagTracer is activated and standard-selections for FlagTracer are set as default.

The FlagTracer Data are written in a separate trace buffer. Each time a FlagTracer buffer is full it is stored into the FlagTracer file (in case of duplex systems there are two FlagTracer files: one for BPA and one for BPB).

There are two possibilities to get the messages:

Dynamic flagtrace with digit analysis result (DAR)

A subscriber (all system devices) can activate the flagtrace by dialing a sign. This means that the messages at the tracepoints of SW are catched by the tracer and can then be interpreted.

For dynamic flagtracing it is possible to add a DAR from the HICOM for FlagTracer with AMO WABE.

ADD-WABE:xxx,,,FLTRACE;

If subscriber A calls subscriber B and dials the flagtrace-sign, all messages sent form subscriber A are catched by FlagTracer. The FlagTrace data can be displayed with the display commands (DA, DB, DF, DL, DN or DA-T, DB-T, DF-T, DL-T, DN-T) and type FLAGTR. The value FLAGTR for parameter type in combination with one of this commands means, that all messages of the flagtracepoint are displayed.

Note: If the type is CP, PP, SW or MSG (default value), the messages at the flagtrace point will not be displayed.

Flagtracing of a static marked device (FLAGTR)

A device (subscriber or trunk) can be marked with the AMO TRACS. Each connection made from this device (subscriber or trunk) will be checked in the same way, like the subscriber has dialed the flagtrace sign.

Set the traceflag in the static device memory:

FLAGTR,ADD,STNO,34567,VCE;

The traceflag will be transfered in the dynamic device table by each connection and also to the dynamic device table of all call members. The tracing of the user will be finished with the command

FLAGTR,DEL,STNO,34567,VCE;

FlagTracer blocking (FLAGTR)

The flagtracing of a connection can be activated by the user of a device and need not be started or stopped with ON or OFF.

FlagTrace is active on all systems as default. It is possible to switch off this feature with the AMO TRACS (Setting the FlagTracer blocking).

To reset the FlagTracer blocking use one of these tracer commands:

FLAGTR,ON;
RES,FLAGTR;

The FlagTracer blocking stops writing messages in the FlagTracer buffer, but further the CP-advisory messages will be displayed on the terminal. To avoid displaying CP-advisory messages of subsribers who are marked with a traceflag, you must reset the traceflag:

FLAGTR,DEL,STNO,34567,VCE;

The activation of FlagTracer by dialing a digit analysis result (DAR) for the HICOM can be deactivated with the AMO-WABE.

DEL-WABE:STNO,xxx,,,FLTRACE;

The FlagTracer blocking is also set by getting a stopall-tracepoint, if FLAGTR,STOPALL was selected.

Changing the FlagTracer filesize

The full buffers of Flagtracer are always written into the same file. The filname (:AMD:ACTF/FT/A or B) could not be changed.

FLAGTR,FILE,60,":PAS:TEST"; 60 is the size of file (no. of block), default is 20

Through this command the FlagTracer filesize could be changed. Additional the FlagTracer file is saved with another filename.
The old FlagTracer file is deleted and a new (empty) FlagTracer file is created.

To save the FlagTracer file without losing the data in the file use the AMO COPY.
