Transport Method

TCP/IP is the default transport method.

Tracing

The broker stub provides an option for writing trace files. The trace file is created in the current directory. The name is pid.etb where pid is the process ID. Remember to switch off tracing to prevent trace files from filling your disk.

To switch on tracing

1. Set environment variable ETB_STUBLOG to one of the values below.

   Value	Explanation
   0	No tracing. Default.
   1	Incoming and outgoing buffers, memory allocation, etc...
   2	All of level 1 plus environment and transport initialization.
   3	All of level 2 plus transport-specific return codes.

Example

DEFINE ETB_STUBLOG 2

To switch of tracing

1. Set environment variable ETB_STUBLOG to "0".

   DEFINE ETB_STUBLOG 0
