The environment is not usable and cannot stay running for more than 5 minutes.
Restarting the environment is not helpful to resolved the situation.

a) Take backup copy of the siebmtshw shell script for safety reasons
b) Replace the last line:

    from:

        exec siebmtshmw $@

    with:

        strace -t -v -f -s 2048  -o siebmtshw_strace.$$ siebmtshmw $@

c) Save the file
d) Restart the Siebel Server
e) strace logs will be generated under siebsrvr/bin
