Dbvisit Standby produces trace file every time it executes. The trace files can be sent to Dbvisit support for investigation, error resolution and analysis.
The Dbvisit Standby trace files are meant for Dbvisit support services only and do not contain information helpful to the user.
The Dbvisit Standby trace file can be identified as follows:

  • The trace filename will start with a number (process id), then the name dbvisit, then the database name and then the timestamp and will end with extension .trc.

(Example 3118_dbvisit_prod10g_200610091322.trc)

  • The location of the trace file is determined by the TMP variable in the Dbvisit Standby Database Configuration (DDC) file.
  • The trace filename will be displayed in the email that is sent by Dbvisit Standby when an error or alert is triggered.
