Guidelines
The file-capture command enables or disables the file capture trace facility. File
captures facilitate visibility into erroneous XML or XSLT content as well as provide
a record of the sources of erroneous content.
To support file capture, the appliance document trace function creates a RAM-disk
to house a WebGUI-accessible virtual file system for tracing all traffic through the
appliance. Each transaction appears in a file hierarchy broken down according to
the semantics of its URL (that is, a directory for the hostname portion and a
directory for each slash portion of the URL) and then further by individual
transaction.
Each transaction that represents a transformation stores not only the inputs, but
information on style sheets, and disposition of the transformation.
Documents are stored in compressed format to reduce byte count. Should
documents need to be removed from the RAM-disk space they will be removed on
a FIFO basis.
While browsing the virtual file system repository via the WebGUI, any point in the
directory hierarchy can be downloaded either as a tar ball or a zip file.
Note: With file capture enabled (either always or errors), significant performance
