SQLDBC Traces 
Use
There are several SQLDBC traces you can use for troubleshooting and problem analysis.
Traces compromise performance. Use traces only for troubleshooting and problem analysis.

To configure, start and stop the SQLDBC traces, use the sqldbc_cons tool.
All SQLDBC traces contain, among other things, profile and time stamp data.
The traces are stored in the directory <user_home>\Application Data\sdb (Microsoft Windows) or <user_home>/.sdb (UNIX/Linux) as the files sqldbctrace-<pid>.prt, where <pid> is the process ID. The trace files are overwritten cyclically.

Example
To activate the SQL trace, enter the following command:
sqldbc_cons TRACE SQL ON
Operating system user anna uses the SQLCLI database tool. She uses the SQLCLI database tool to log on to the DEMODB database instance as MONA and queries the data in the CUSTOMER table.
The SQL trace is written in the /home/anna/.sdb/sqldbctrace-19714.prt file:
