pcidebug -- control log output of executing PC-Interface server

Synopsis

pcidebug pid command [child]
pcidebug -V

Description

The pcidebug program is a dynamic facility that controls the monitoring of the bidirectional communication between the personal computer and the PC-Interface server.

The pid parameter indicates the process ID of the PC-Interface server process that is to have debugging applied.

The command parameter takes one of the following forms:

=chanList
Enable the specified channels only.

+chanList
Add the specified channels to any already enabled.

-chanList
Disable the specified channels only.

chanList
Toggle the enabled/disabled state of these channels.

on
Enable the ``standard'' channels only.

off
Disable all channels.
The chanList is a list of channel numbers, separated by commas.

If all logging is disabled by the pcidebug command, the logging file is closed and can be removed.

The child keyword is optional and is useful only when the pid specifies pciconsvr.ip. The child keyword specifies that the debugging change applies not to pciconsvr.ip but to its children, the pcidossvr.ip processes started after the debugging change.

Use the -V option to display the internal version number for this command.
