It sounds like you may have run the trace using the TSM GUI. This
trace is only produced if you are running the TSM command line version of
the backup/archive client. Try running the trace again, this time using
dsmc.exe instead.
Also, Richard mentioned that this is a journal based backup you're
attempting, and that you are getting NpOpen timeout errors. Can you send me
the jbberror.log file that you have for this client? There were some recent
code fixes in this error on the client, that were fixed at level 5.2.2.10.
Upgrading to this level may be another thing we want to consider here.
Please let me know if you still are having problems getting the
trace.At 08:52 AM 7/14/2004 -0400, you wrote:
I tried the trace but didn't get any output from it. Here are the statements I used:
testflag instrument:detail testflag instrument:api
I see the dsminstr.report file but it has 0 bytes in it.

Ralph - I work in IBM TSM performance support. Please get a client instruction trace as Richard suggests for this problem and post it to the listserver. I can take a look at it.
