1. A system for generating an integrated trace output file, the system comprising:
- a client comprising a client agent, including;
a client detection module configured to detect a first event having a first severity level at the client;
a client generation module configured to generate a client-side trace output in response to the detection of the first event at the client; and
a client communication module configured to transmit the client-side trace output;
a server comprising;
a server processing unit;
a server agent designed to be executed by the server processing unit, including;
a server detection module configured to detect a second event having a second severity level at the server;
a server generation module configured to generate a server-side trace output in response to the detection of the second event at the server;
a server communication module configured to receive the client-side trace output from the client; and
a server integration module configured to generate the integrated trace output file by integrating the client-side trace output with the server-side trace output, the integrated trace output file having the client-side trace output appended to the server-side trace output,wherein the server is configured to allow a user to set severity levels indicating the integrated trace output file comprises at least one message among an error message, a warning message, an information message, and a debug message.

Abstract
There are methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for generating an integrated trace output file on a system having a first computing device and a second computing device. The first computing device generates a first trace output and receives a second trace output from the second computing device. The first computing device generates an integrated trace output file by combining the second trace output with the first trace output.

2. A system comprising:
-
at least one client for generating at least one client-side trace output in response to a detection of at least one event having at least one severity level at the at least one client; and a server comprising; a server processing unit; a server agent designed to be executed by the server processing unit, the server agent comprising; a server detection module configured to detect a first event having a first severity level at the server; a server generation module configured to generate a server-side trace output in response to the detection of the first event having the first severity level at the server; a server communication module configured to receive the at least one client-side trace output from the at least one client; and a server integration module configured to generate the integrated trace output file by integrating the at least one client-side trace output with the server-side trace output, the integrated trace output file having the at least one client-side trace output appended to the server-side trace output, wherein the server is configured to allow a user to set severity levels indicating the integrated trace output file comprises at least one message among an error message, a warning message, an information message, and a debug message. - View Dependent Claims (4)

6. A method for generating trace output files on a system having a client and a server, the server comprising a processing unit, the method comprising:
-
detecting a first event having a first severity level at the client; generating a client-side trace output in response to the detection of the first event having the first severity level at the client; detecting a second event having a second severity level at the server; generating a server-side trace output in response to the detection of the second event having the second severity level at the server; transmitting the client-side trace output to the server; integrating the client-side trace output with the server-side trace output to generate an integrated trace output file having the client-side trace output appended to the server-side trace output; and setting, by the server processing unit, severity levels indicating the integrated trace output file comprises at least one message among an error message, a warning message, an information message, and a debug message. - View Dependent Claims (7)

8. A non-transitory computer program storage product storing instructions that cause a server to:
-
detect a first event having a first severity level at the server; generate a server-side trace output in response to the detection of the first event; receive a client-side trace output from a client, wherein the client-side trace output is generated in response to detection of a second event having a second severity level at the client; generate an integrated trace output file by integrating the client-side trace output with the server-side trace output, the integrated trace output file having the client-side trace output appended to the-server-side trace output; and set severity levels indicating the integrated trace output file comprises at least one message among an error message, a warning message, an information message, and a debug message. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
