Data bits described in the following table are set in the Service > Service Parameters area in
Cisco CallManager Administration. Following are two examples of desired values based on the
particular problem.
The recommended value for normal system debugging is SdlTraceDataFlags=0x110
The recommended value when tracking problems with SDL links is 0x13D (non-
compacted trace; if a compact trace is desired, bit 0x200 must be set. It can be set in
combination with any other bits)
SDLTraceDataFlags Definitions
SDLTraceDataFlag Value Definition
TraceSdlLinkState = 0x001 Enable trace of SDL Link Initialization
TraceSdlLowLevel = 0x002 Enable tracing of low-level SDL events, for example, fileOpen,
socket events, and so on
TraceSdlLinkPoll = 0x004 Enable tracing of SDL Link Poll message
TraceSdlLinkMsg = 0x008 Enable tracing of SDL Link Message
traceRawData = 0x010 Enable raw signal data trace on all signals
TraceSdlTagMap = 0x020 Enable tag mapping
traceCreate = 0x100 Enable process create and stop traces
TraceNoPrettyPrint = 0x200 Disable pretty printing of trace files
Disk Space Warning
IMPORTANT: Be advised that information obtained from this interface could be very detailed,
and therefore consume a large amount of disk space. For this reason, we advise you to turn on
the trace file for a specific amount of time, then review the information and turn off the trace.
