STRACE POST Processing

The STRACE POST option processes the binary file returned from the GET option and produces two files:

Sample output from running an STRACE POST is shown here:

RAW file    = strace.rawOutput file = strace.out
MTE file    = strace.mte
Adjust time = TRUE

On rare occasions, a start or end time stamp may be shown as ffffffff:ffffffff. This occurs when STRACE processing was unable to gain synchronous access to one or more processors to get their time stamps. When this occurs, you will need to recollect the STRACE data by turning off STRACE, flushing the STRACE buffers, and then restarting STRACE.
