SET TRACE_LEVEL

The SET TRACE_LEVEL command sets the amount of tracing done by DGMGRL. This is a client-side setting and does not impact the tracing set for the broker within the Oracle Database.

Format

SET TRACE_LEVEL [ SUPPORT | USER | NONE];

Usage Notes

• Set trace level to USER to limit the amount of tracing information stored. This is the default setting and includes information about fast-start failover, status changes of the primary and target standby database, and error or warning messages.

• Set trace level to SUPPORT to increase the amount of tracing information to include lower-level information needed by Oracle Support Services.

Example 10-9 Setting the DGMGRL and Observer Tracing Levels

The following example starts DGMGRL with the TRACE_LEVEL set to the default setting of USER. The SET TRACE_LEVEL command is used to modify the trace level for DGMGRL to SUPPORT.

When you subsequently start the observer, use the TRACE_LEVEL clause to set the observer's trace level to USER. If you omit the TRACE_LEVEL clause in the START OBSERVER command, the observer is started using the same trace level setting as DGMGRL, SUPPORT.

$ dgmgrl
DGMGRL> SET TRACE_LEVEL SUPPORT;
DGMGRL> START OBSERVER TRACE_LEVEL is USER;

Example 10-10 Setting the DGMGRL and Database Tracing Levels to Different Values

The following example sets the DGMGRL trace level to SUPPORT. The EDIT CONFIGURATION command is used to set the trace level of the Oracle Database to USER. Therefore, DGMGRL and the database use different tracing levels.

$ dgmgrl
DGMGRL> SET TRACE_LEVEL support;
DGMGRL> EDIT CONFIGURATION SET PROPERTY TraceLevel = USER;
