Summary :
This SAP Note identifies and proposes remediation for inadequate error diagnostics within the SAP system, where Syslog or short dumps fail to capture detailed error information, particularly stemming from C-kernel issues. It introduces the utilization of "rdisp/TRACE" profile variables, allowing adjustable trace levels for various SAP components to better analyze errors. Setting "rdispatch/TRACE" ranges from storing no information to fully tracing data blocks and specific system components, which assists in troubleshooting by providing more detailed error logs. Additionally, runtime changes to trace levels are supportable via signals in UNIX and command-line utilities in Windows, enhancing on-the-fly diagnostics.
