Enabling Tracing

Describes the "EnableTracing" preference and its functionality.

When you set the "EnableTracing" preference to TRUE, Sybase CEP Engine logs all database, RPC server, or public window requests for the service to the Sybase CEP Server log as info level messages. Here is an example:

<Param Name="EnableTracing">true</Param>

Info level logging must be enabled when you enable tracing. This is the default setting for logging. However, if you have reset the logging level in the "SybaseC8/Logging/LogWriters" section of the c8-server.conf file, set this preference back to its default before enabling tracing. For more information about Sybase CEP Server logging, see "Specifying Sybase CEP Server Log Location".

Note that turning on tracing may degrade performance, and tracing is recommended only during debugging.

The default setting for the "EnableTracing" preference is FALSE.
