Normally tracing is most useful when working with IBM support or development to diagnose a problem. The trace settings you need, and what components you need to trace depend on the nature of the problem.
Perhaps if you were to describe your TSM environment and the problem you are having, and include actual documentation showing the problem, someone on this list might already know what you are seeing, eliminating the need to trace at all.

I need to trace a backup I am trying to perform because it keeps failing in the same place. I know I need to add something to the DSM.OPT file but I have forgotten what it is, and also is there something on the server side I need to do as well. Any help is always appreciated, and thank you in advance. Thanks James
