If you suspect there is an SNA communication problem in your configuration,
then using IBM Personal Communications Trace Facility can provide useful
diagnostic information. The most useful type of SNA trace is likely to be the
data-link control (DLC) level tracing (or in SNA terms, link station tracing), which
will show you the binds, bind responses, attaches (FMH-5), and attach errors
(FMH-7).
To start the trace utility, click Start -> Programs -> IBM Personal
Communications -> Administrative and PD Aids -> Trace Facility. This will
display the Trace Facility as shown in Figure 2-12.
Figure 2-12 Personal Communications Trace Facility
If you have a LAN connection and wish to activate DLC tracing, select
Connectivity in the left pane, then LAN (LLC2) in the middle pane, then All
frames trace in the right pane. To activate the trace, click Start, run the desired
operation, and then click Stop. To save the trace to a file, click Save and you will
be prompted for a file name and whether or not to append or replace the trace
file. By default, an unformatted trace file will be saved as NSTRC.TRC. Then to
format the trace file, click Format, and the formatted file NSTRC.TLG will be
produced. This formatted trace file can then be viewed using the Personal
Communications Log viewer utility by double-clicking the file.
