trace_filter

Syntax

trace_filter [ {trace_flag | all }, 
     [ {filter_code | all} 
        [, filter_values]
]]

trace_flag – The name of an existing trace flag. For example, LTITRACELTL.
all – A keyword that allows you to apply a filter value to all trace flags at once.

filter_code – The name of an existing filter code. The Replication Agent objects are identified by these filter codes:

filter_values – specifies the filter code value for filtering the Replication Agent data.
Note: Enclose multiple filter values with double quotes (") and enter values in a comma-delimited list. For example, specify "delete, insert, update" filter values for operation type (OP).

The trace_filter command is intended for use by SAP Technical Support engineers when troubleshooting Replication Agent problems.

When trace_filter is invoked with no option, it returns the current settings for all Replication Agent trace flags.

The summary of different trace_filter command output for various filter settings:

Command	Output
trace_filter	Shows the current trace filter for all trace flags and filter codes. This command is same as trace_filter all.
trace_filter `trace_flag`	Shows the current trace filter for the specified `trace_flag` with all filter codes. If the `trace_flag` is set to all, this command is equivalent to trace_filter with no arguments.
trace_filter `trace_flag`, `filter_code`	Shows the current trace filter settings for the specified `trace_flag` and the `filter_code`. If the `trace_flag` is set to all, the command returns filter settings for the specified `filter_code`. If the `filter_code` is set to all, the command returns filter settings for the specified `trace_flag`. If both `trace_flag` and `filter_code` are set to all the command is equivalent to trace_filter with no arguments.
trace_filter `trace_flag`, `filter_code`, `filter_values`	Sets or removes the filter values for the specified `trace_flag` and the `filter_code`.

Changes made with the trace_filter command take effect immediately.
The trace_filter command is valid when the Replication Agent instance is in the Admin, Replicating, or Replication Down state.
