3.5.2.11 Setting the Trace File Size

The trace file size can be set.

Trace files for which a trace file size can be set are hdlmtrn.log (n indicates a file
number from 1 to 64). The length of a trace file is fixed. Thus, even if the amount of
written trace information is less than the set file size, the file size of each output trace file
is always fixed.

For the trace file size, you can specify a value (in kilobytes) from 100 to 16000. If you
specify a value smaller than the setting value, the message (KAPL02080-W for the Options
window and KAPL01097-W for the set operation) is displayed to confirm execution, and the
trace file is temporarily deleted.

Once trace data has been written to all the trace files, the oldest file is overwritten with
new trace data.

By specifying both the trace file size and the number of trace files, you can collect up to
1024000KB of trace data in total.

„
