Use one of two WebSphere Application Server trace groups to pass
client information to a database.
About this task
The WAS.clientinfo and WAS.clientinfopluslogging traces pass client
data on every connection that originates from the same data source.
Procedure
- Open the administrative console.
- Select Troubleshooting.
- Select Log and Trace.
- Select the server you want to use.
- Select Change log detail levels.
- Select the Configuration or Run time tab.
- In the Trace Specification entry field, type WAS.clientinfopluslogging=all.
This starts the WAS.clientinfopluslogging trace, which passes the client
information to the backend data store (if your database supports receiving
client information in this manner) and logs important client activities. Type WAS.clientinfo=all to
pass client information to the backend without tracing of client activities.
To deactivate either trace, simply type the trace group name followed by =off (without
spacing between characters).
