turn off setdebug

[Work User]

Greetings,

I'm trying to debug some client issues and can update the debug level with setdebug in the console. How do I turn debugging off or what is the default logging level so I can set it back to normal after I'm done? 

Thanks

Good catch I was pretty sure this was mentioned into the documentation, https://docs.bareos.org/TasksAndConcepts/BareosConsole.html#bcommandsetdebug

You can only guess it with the trace parameter which become active with =1 and inactive with =0

Same for setdebug level=0 all will deactivate all debug on all daemon and also trace.

 
if you're playing with trace file, watch out the disk space they can easily improper sized /var/lib/bareos.

Ah, thanks for that. I'm still a bit new and wasn't sure if the logging level had a default number and setting debug just cranked up that number. Another piece of the puzzle for me was that director debug logs show up in the system journal instead of /var/log/bareos/bareos.log, at least on Fedora 37
