Activate and Deactivate Data Sources

When a data source is registered in System Administration, it is automatically registered in Common to be traced.

A Data Source can be deactivated, which is helpful to reduce resource (memory, disk space, processing, etc.) consumption.

To deactivate a data source from being traced:

  1. Click Analyze in Navigation pane.

  2. Click Trace for Data Source ID.

  3. Click Deactivate on Page toolbar; the data source is no longer traced.

    NOTE:   Click Activate on Page toolbar to begin tracing for the data source. At this point, a snapshot of the database is taken and tracing begins.
