Returns current trace flag settings, or changes trace flag settings for the Replication Agent instance.
The trace command is intended for use by Sybase Technical Support engineers when troubleshooting Replication Agent.
When trace is invoked with no option, it returns the current settings for all Replication Agent trace flags.
When trace is invoked with the flag and switch options, it changes the setting of the trace flag identified, and it returns the current (new) setting for the trace flag.
When trace is invoked with the all keyword and a switch option, it sets all Replication Agent trace flags to the value specified in the switch option, and it returns the current (new) setting for all of the trace flags.
Changes made with the trace command take effect immediately.
When a trace flag is set to true, tracing is enabled for the trace points identified by the flag. When set to false, tracing is disabled for the trace points.
Output from all trace points (except LTITRACELTL) is sent to the Replication Agent system log file. Use the log_system_name command to find the name and path of the Replication Agent system log file.
Output from the LTITRACELTL trace point is sent to a separate trace output file named LTITRACELTL.log. To view the contents of the LTITRACELTL.log file, your file viewer must be capable of handling very long lines.
