"ALTER TRACE" permission

  • Is that a database- or server-level permission?

  • Best I can tell it is a server level permission.

  • It's a server-wide permission. Traces aren't database objects, they trace the entire instance.

  • The Permissions topic lists all the potential permissions in a useful chart. It includes permissions like ALTER TRACE (object: server, as previously mentioned) which you won't find in the Permissions Hierarchy.
