Home Forums SQL Server 2005 Backups Does trace flag 3226 suppress success messages on SQL2K? RE: Does trace flag 3226 suppress success messages on SQL2K?

  • Well, whaddya know -- IT WORKED!

    (I've seen it documented as -T3226, but BOL says use /T3226 so I switched to that syntax.)

    So it appears that using DBCC to set a trace flag has only a "local" scope, whereas setting it in the startup parameters has a "global" scope. I have not seen this difference mentioned anywhere.

    It is SOOOO nice to see a CLEAN and navigable event log at last!

    Thanks again to all that helped!
