Tracing messages using Avaya Breeze platform traceMessage

Last Updated : Jul 02, 2018 |

About this task

Avaya Breeze® platform traceMessage supports tracing messages of multiple protocols and components. You can customize the display of the trace message results using the display filter options that traceMessage provides.

traceMessage displays a maximum of 10000 messages.

Note:

While configuring the HTTP proxy exclusion list using CEnetSetup, if you used the OR symbol (|) to separate multiple values in HTTP_PROXY_EXCLUSION, traceMessage does not display the IP address or FQDN of Avaya Breeze® platform. You must manually edit the proxy.sh file at /etc/profile.d/ and add double quotation marks (“ “) around the value of HTTP_PROXY_EXCLUSION to correct the error.
