Chapter 2 Configuring the DirectConnect Access Service Library

Access service Tracing properties

Access service Tracing properties

Tracing properties control whether access service data is written to the server trace file. For detailed information about the server trace file, see DirectConnect Server Administration Guide.

The subsection heading for these properties must appear in the service library configuration file as:

{Tracing}

Because tracing degrades performance, use tracing only when Sybase Technical Support instructs you to configure specific tracing properties.

Warning!

To provide Sybase Technical Support with all the necessary trace data, the server trace file will be allocated a maximum of 20 MB of space. When the server trace file exceeds the maximum it will be copied to a file with the same filename and with an "_old" extension (<filename>_old). See the DirectConnect Server Administration Guide for suggestions for deleting or backing up old log and trace files.
