SNIFFER
Purpose
This report shows information that is written to the SNIFFER data set.
Restriction: Do
not use the SNIFFER option when the CTRACE subcommands are used with
the IPCS MERGE subcommand. The SNIFFER data file is written over by
the multiple CTRACE commands that specify the SNIFFER option.

Sniffer Report
3,385 records written to MWS.SNIFFER.ETH
639,789 bytes written
2121 packets were abbreviated
2024 is the maximum data size
3375 packets were truncated from 1843 bytes
Following are descriptions for some areas of
the example.
- 108 records written to SNIFFER
- This record count includes the two header records and one trailer record that were written to the SNIFFER data set.
- 46000 bytes written to SNIFFER
- The number of data bytes written to the SNIFFER data set. This should be close to the amount of data to be downloaded.
- 22 records were truncated to 1600 bytes
- Because the logical record length was 1,600 bytes, 22 records were truncated. This can be avoided by increasing the logical record length. The maximum logical record length is 32,763 or the size of physical disk blocks, whichever is smaller.
- 3.385 records written to MWS.SNIFFER.ETH
- This record count includes the two header records and one trailer record that were written to the SNIFFER data set.
- 639,789 bytes written
- The number of data bytes written to the SNIFFER data set. This should be the amount of data to be downloaded.
- 2121 packets were abbreviated
- The number of packets that were abbreviated when the trace data was collected.
- 2024 is the maximum data size
- The size of the largest record written to the SNIFFER data set.
- 3375 packets were truncated from 1843 bytes
- Because the logical record length was 2,048 bytes, 3375 records were truncated. This can be avoided by increasing the logical record length. The maximum logical record length is 32,763 or the size of physical disk blocks, whichever is smaller.
