Starting and stopping server traces

Data from server traces is stored in the EMS log. The event ID is 21034.

The tracing facility generates a pair of messages for each function that is traced:

First message — Contains the input parameters to the function

Second message — Contains the output from the function

begin writing the input and the output data for each function executed during the trace period.
The following data is collected for each function:

Viewing MXCS user permissions

MXCS permissions define the type of access that a user has to manage MXCS objects on the
SQL/MX database. Only a user with OPERATOR permission can view MXCS permissions. Initially,
only the SUPER.SUPER user has OPERATOR permission.

The following are basic security rules for MXCS users:

Only the user who installed SQL/MX (SUPER.SUPER or SUPER.SUPER alias) can manage
the user list.

Only users with OPERATOR permission can view the user list.

Users with USER permission cannot manage or view the user list.
