Setting Trace

When you need to troubleshoot an Agent loaded into an Automation Engine system, you can turn on trace for Agent and Job objects from the following places:

  • From the Administration perspective in AWI (Automic Automation's web interface)

  • From the ucxjcitx.ini file

From the AWI

  1. Go to the Administration perspective > Agents list.

  2. Select the relevant Agent and right-click to select Advanced Options.

  3. In RA do one of the following:

    • Select 9 = max. output to turn trace on.

    • Select 0 = no output to turn trace off.

From the ucxjcitx.ini File

  1. Stop the Agent(s) from the ServiceManager window or command line.

  2. Edit the ucxjcitx.ini file:

    • Set ra=99 to turn trace on for the Agent and its third-party libraries.

    • Set ra=0 to turn trace off.

    Note:

    Third-party library trace can only be set in the ucxjcitx.ini file. It cannot be set through the AWI like for other Agents.

  3. In the code below, ra=99 turns Rapid Automation trace on:

    [TRACE]

    file=..\temp\RA_TRACE_##.TXT

    max_trace_kb=8000

    tcp/ip=0

    ra=99

    trccount=10

  4. Restart the Agent.
