Hello there.
I am well aware that one can decode MST using the trace analyzer feature in the "change mst" form.
But that will only work for 8 hours straight. So my question is, can I grab MST logs and run some command(s) on them and somehow get them decoded just as if it was done by enabling trace analyzer?
TIA
Cheers
 
MST log buffer is only overwritten in CM. The more stuff that you trace, the less time before overwritten.
MST log buffer when captured to logfiles (/var/log/ecs/*.log) does not get overwritten near as often. These files are about 1MB and there are 1000 files.
For a duplicated server pair, to double the logfile capacity before it is overwritten, interchange the CM active server to the standby server. The standby server logfiles will last much longer, due to CM not writing data to the standby server logs.
You could also copy the logfiles off the server to somewhere that they will not be overwritten.
