EASY as 1, 2, 3
ZFtrace was designed by seasoned AIX consultants who need to quickly, painlessly,
and unobtrusively install, debug, and fix programs on customer machines.
As a result, you can install ZFtrace and trace a program in 60 seconds with three
simple commands.
Assume that you would like to trace the /bin/ls program under ZFtrace. After
placing the install package into a temporary directory, run these 3 commands:
./install -NORMAL
export PATH=/usr/lpp/ZFtrace/bin:$PATH
zftr /usr/bin/ls -ld /var
ZFtrace creates the trace file ls.1.zftr so you can analyze behavior and find clues.
It is just that EASY!
Documentation
The attention to EASE of use reveals itself in the documentation. The documentation
is html in order to allow viewing with your web browser. The entire documentation,
when printed, is approximately 6 pages.
Do you want to wade through a multi-hundred page
user manual to trace your program?
With ZFtrace, you don't!
