Tracing Overview
Fabric has a powerful Tracing mechanism for writing internal operations performed by Fabric into trace files.
Tracing can be filtered by:
- Operations, for example; sqlCommand, fabricCommand or sync.
- Categories, for example; database, commands or jobs.
- Levels, for example; debug, verbose, info, warning or error.
Tracing can be set on both global and session levels. The result of the tracing process is logged into a file saved under the $FABRIC_HOME/trace folder which can be viewed by a web application to enable easier navigation and analysis of the results.
Several live tracing processes can run at the same time.
Common use cases of the Tracing mechanism:
- To understand why the sync of a given instance takes a long time. The user requests a list of all queries running on the source system as a part of the sync process together with details about the duration of each query.
- To know the number of connections opened for a given interface. The user requests a list of the activities that initiated the connections and when they ended.
