Data Service SQL Trace

When enabled, this setting causes the Data Service to log SQL queries from the Data Layer to disk. These queries are stored in Logs\TLDataService-SqlTrace-YYYYMMDD.

Note: SQL trace statements can quickly grow the log file. Do not enable this option unless you are actively troubleshooting an issue. Disable it when the issue has been resolved.

Excel Export Extension

By default, Discover exports Excel reports in an XML format that can be read by Microsoft™ Excel and uses the xml extension for the filename. However, xml files may be mapped to a different application. You may change this setting to export the reports with a different filename extension so that they can be automatically opened in Microsoft Excel. Typically, this value is changed to xls. When the file is loaded in Excel, users may receive an error message, which can be ignored.

If desired, you can configure your local system to load all XML documents through the appropriate Microsoft Office application.

Extended Duplicate Canister Server Detection

When enabled, the Portal checks to verify that any changes to a Canister Server definition in the Portal do not result in a conflict with another Canister Server's host name, IP address, or full qualified domain name. Duplicate Canister Server references can cause data extraction problems.

Note: The above setting is enabled by default. It should be disabled only in environments where network infrastructure makes DNS queries complete very slowly. If this setting is disabled, then you should manually verify that there are no duplicate Canister Servers in the system. See Discover Servers.
Enabled

When properly configured, the following two settings enable Portal users to automatically login to Discover Online Help where official product documentation is maintained and updated.
