To enable, from the Desktop Client Console window or when logged into DMCLI, run the following command: set sdp_trace on /user_directory=<drive:\path to a directory> Once this is set, reproduce the issue which you wish to trace.
The key to finding out what happens is in the SDP trace files so enabling this in the dm.cfg is vital in being able to diagnose the problem, for example: DM_ SDP_TRACE c:\temp\ sdp_trace \ The folder must exist and be fully writeable.
set cmd_trace on /user_filename="<drive>:\<path to a directory>\cmdLogfile.log" set dbio_trace on set sdp_trace on /user_directory="<drive>:\<path to a directory>"
