Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Difference between ALTER SYSTEM SET EVENTS and init.ora parameter?
Howdy all,
I have a support tech telling me that:
alter system set events '6500 trace name processstate level 10';
will NOT produce the same trace file as setting:
event= "6500 trace name processstate level 10"
in the init.ora and bouncing the 9.2.0.5.0 instance. The tech's unable to explain what the difference is, however. I tried testing this by setting event 1652 as above and running a cartesian product with an ORDER BY. The trace was created just fine from what I can see. I can't justify bouncing a production instance because a tech says so (and no way in hell I will without explanation).
Anyone have any ideas what the difference might be, if any?
TIA!
Rich
