  3. Modify the providerTraceLog.properties, and set the debug level by uncommenting the following line:

    #LEVEL=ERROR" to "LEVEL=DEBUG

  4. Save the providerTraceLog.properties file.
  5. Copy and replace the providerTraceLog.propertiesfile from the temporary directory to the /etc/cim/lsi directory.
  6. Restart the provider service by running the /etc/init.d/sfcbd-watchdog start command.
  7. Re-create the issue.
  8. Run the following command to collect the complete LSA logs:
