Just depends on how your problem is detected… is it in a log?  Is it found by 
running a command (.e.g mm*)?  Is it discovered in `ps` output?  Is your 
scheduler failing jobs?

We have ongoing monitoring of most of these types of problem detection points 
and an automated process to capture a trace could be added to trigger upon 
detection depending on how the problem is detected…

over-write mode?

I’ve been told that V70o0 unified nodes (GPFS under the covers) run with 
tracing enabled all the time.. but I agree with you Brian on the potential 
impacts. But when you must catch a trace for a problem that occurs once every 
few weeks – how else would I do it?

I believe IBM recommends never running clusters with continuous tracing.
