Annotating the Database Trace log

When you use the Database Trace log as a troubleshooting tool, it might be helpful to add your own comments or notes to the file. For example, you can specify the date and time of a particular connection, the versions of database server and client software you used, or any other useful information.

StepsTo annotate the log file:

  1. Open the DBTRACE.LOG file in one of the following ways:

    • Use the File Editor in PowerBuilder. (For instructions, see the Users Guide.)

    • Use any text editor outside PowerBuilder.

  2. Edit the log file with your comments.

  3. Save your changes to the log file.
