SET_OPTIONS

The SET_OPTIONS administration method turns tracing options on or off. You can set the following options:

OptionAction

clean

Removes the files from the server common area.

crypto_trace

Cryptography and remote key management information.

debug

Traces session shutdown, change check, launch and fork information.

docbroker_trace

Traces connection broker information.

i18n_trace

Traces client session locale and codepage. An entry is logged identifying the session locale and client code page whenever a session is started.

An entry is also logged if the locale or code page is changed during the session.

last_sql_trace

Traces the SQL translation of the last DQL statement issued before access violation and exception errors.

If an error occurs, the last_sql_trace option causes the server to log the last SQL statement that was issued prior to the error. This tracing option is enabled by default.

It is strongly recommended that you do not turn off this option. It provides valuable information to Technical Support if it ever necessary to contact them.

lock_trace

Traces Windows locking information.

net_ip_addr

Traces the IP addresses of client and server for authentication.

nettrace

Turns on RPC tracing. Traces Netwise calls, SSL, connection ID, client host address, and client hostname.

SQL commands sent to the underlying RDBMS for subsequent sessions, including the repository session ID and the database connection ID for each SQL statement.

trace_authentication

Traces detailed authentication information.

trace_complete_launch

trace_method_server

Traces the operations of the method server.

The SET_OPTIONS method returns TRUE if the operation succeeds or FALSE if it fails.
