Database trace files

Use the information contained in database trace files (.dbl) as one of the primary tools to assist in troubleshooting. These files contain detailed information generated during Database Interface Designer activity and also during map execution. For example:

• The trace file recorded for a Database Interface Designer trace contains information about the activities taking place when generating type trees such as database connections, SQL statements executed, and so on.
• The database trace file produced at map execution time records detailed information about the database adapter activity such as records retrieved, data source and target activity, and so on.
