    Description

      Documentation in the Server & Admin guide talks about a "derby.drda.traceAll" system property and two trace commands available from the NetworkServerControl API: "trace on" and "trace off". The "trace on" command is supposed to turn tracing on for all server sessions, unless a specific session number is passed in via the "-s" parameter. Similarly, the "trace off" command is supposed to turn tracing off for all server sessions, unless a specific session number is passed in via the "-s" parameter.

      However, I've noticed the following behavior, which appears to be incorrect.

      1) if the server is started with derby.drda.traceAll=true, then subsequent attempts to turn tracing off do not work. For example:

      // Start the server with 'traceAll' set to true.
      > java -Dderby.drda.traceAll=true org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl start
      Server is ready to accept connections on port 1527.

      // Try to turn tracing off.
      > java org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl trace off
      Trace turned off for all sessions.

      But then, despite the message saying that trace was turned off, tracing is still enabled for all connections thereafter: if I connect three more times, I will see a 'ServerX.trace' file for each connection.

      2) If the server is started with derby.drda.traceAll=false, then attempts to turn tracing on only affect the connection that enables tracing; tracing will NOT be done for any subsequent connections. For ex:

      // Start the server with 'traceAll' set to false (which is also the default)
      > java -Dderby.drda.traceAll=false org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl start
      Server is ready to accept connections on port 1527.

      // Turn tracing on.
      > java org.apache.derby.drda.NetworkServerControl trace on
      Trace turned on for all sessions.

      Now I see a 'ServerX.trace' for the connection that was made to turn tracing on. However, if I then connect three more times, I will not see any 'ServerX.trace' files for those connections.
