Change the Trace Level Temporarily

You can use a DSA console to change a DSA's trace level. This new trace level takes effect immediately. However, when you restart or reinitialize the DSA, it returns to the trace level defined in its configuration.

To change the trace level temporarily

1. Use Telnet to connect to the DSA that you want to trace.
2. Enter the following command:

   set trace = option;
   

3. To reset tracing to the default level, enter the following command:

   set trace = error;
   

   For example, to set the trace level to x500, use the following command:

   set trace = x500;
