Enabling a transaction log in the DOORS database server
Before you begin
About this task
When you start the database server from a command prompt on a Windows system, use the -debug switch. That switch is not required on Linux systems or when the database server is run as a Windows service.
After logging is complete, use the dbadmin command to turn off logging so that you do not have to restart the database server. On Windows systems, dbadmin is in the \DOORS_install\9.version\bin directory. On Linux systems, dbadmin is in the $DOORSHOME/bin directory.
Procedure
What to do next
While you are troubleshooting a problem, you might need to complete diagnostic steps with logging turned on at a specific level. To turn on logging to a specific level without restarting the database server, use the dbadmin -serverlogging switch to set the necessary level of logging, for example, dbadmin -d 36677@IBMEDSERV -serverlogging 3.
