The Trace TCP/IP Application (TRCTCPAPP) command can be used to break down DRDA® and DDM flows into an easier-to-read logical representation. It also displays the information in ASCII which can be of help in unlike environments.
To request this formatting, enter the following while ending the communications trace:
TRCTCPAPP APP(*DDM) SET(*OFF) ARGLIST('lvl=2')
