FILE_TRACE

This variable allows you to start file tracing without specifying a "-t #" option on the command line when starting AcuServer. Set this variable to a non-zero value to save information about all file OPENs, READs, and WRITEs in the error file. Set it to 5, 6, or 7 to flush the error trace buffer to disk after every WRITE operation. The default is "0." Like other server configuration variables, you can change the value of FILE_TRACE while AcuServer is running by using the acuserve "-config" option.
