Dave I guess posting an identical message a second time has at least caught my eye and reminded me that I was going to suggest you might try the IBMTCP-L list

Our network management vendor is BMC and we are running MainView for IP. NETMONitor is in the PROFILE.TCPIP and if turned on it will start all supported network monitoring services. Basically I am looking at starting PKTTRCSERVICE, TCPCONNSERVICE and SMFSERVICE. So these services will provide an interface for network management and enable access to trace data collected. Should enabling these add much overhead? If I don't run a packet trace is the PKTTRCSERVICE just sitting there started and waiting? What I noticed is that without SMFSERVICE turned on I can't get any FTP file detail information. So this must add some overhead to keep the FTP records. If I do this for production I will be able to go back in time and look at our FTP traffic to investigate any problems. If I just dynamically turn it on I won't have any detail previous to when I turn this on. > > Any experiences as to what happens down the line when these are enabled?
