Configuring diagnostic tracing

You cannot change the preconfigured tracing settings of the Application Profiling Wizard in Sybase Central. However, you can use the Database Tracing Wizard to configure almost all aspects of your tracing activities. Use one of the following methods to configure diagnostic tracing settings:

use the Database Tracing Wizard in Sybase Central. This method is recommended because it allows you to see all the tracing settings that are in effect. See Change the diagnostic tracing configuration settings.
use system procedures to change settings stored in the diagnostic tracing tables. For more information about the system procedures used to administer application profiling, see sa_set_tracing_level system procedure and sa_save_trace_data system procedure.

Tracing settings are stored in the sa_diagnostic_tracing_level system table. See sa_diagnostic_tracing_level table.

The SendingTracingTo and ReceivingTracingFrom database properties identify the tracing and production databases, respectively. For more information about these properties, see Database properties.
