Setting Parameters in Server Configuration Files

You can set the parameters in server configuration files of Application Server or PeopleSoft Process Scheduler server to enable tracing in them and to get the trace output of both SQL and PeopleCode in the Application Engine Trace (AET) file. You can also set parameter to enable the trace output of sections in Application Engine programs.

Enabling Traces for Application Server and Process Scheduler Server

You can also enable traces in the configuration files for both the application server and the PeopleSoft Process Scheduler server.

For programs invoked by PeopleCode and run on the application server, set the TraceAE parameter in the Trace section of the Application Server configuration file (PSAPPSRV.CFG). You can use PSADMIN to set this parameter.

In the PeopleSoft Process Scheduler configuration file, set the TraceAE parameter in the Trace section to indicate a level of tracing. You can use PSADMIN to set this parameter.

This option is available on Microsoft Windows NT and UNIX, and it applies only to Application Engine programs invoked in batch mode.

Note:

The TraceFile parameter does not specify the location of the Application Engine trace file; it applies only to the generic PeopleTools SQL and PeopleCode traces.

Combining PeopleCode and SQL Trace into AET file

You can combine PeopleCode and SQL Trace into AET file. You can set the TraceAECombineOutput parameter in server configuration file of Application Server or Process Scheduler Server to enable this feature.

The default value of this parameter is set to “N”. You can set the parameter, to a value of “Y” to merge SQL/PeopleCode trace into AET file.
