Our DSMSERV machine went inactive over the weekend. Apparently his disk
filled up because of a cancerous file named 'TRACE ACT'. The disturbing
thing is we can't figure out when this file got created, how or why it
got started, who enabled the trace, what kind of trace it is, etc. etc.

Has anyone else encountered this file ? A sample of the output looks like
this (naturally, timestamps would be TOO helpful):

  <1778>BUF(379): Latch database page 31, mode = S
  <1778>BUF(379): Latch database page 26751, mode = S
  <1778>BUF(1730): Getting buffer for database page=26751.
  <1778>BUF(562): Unlatching database page 31 (Clean).
  <1778>BUF(562): Unlatching database page 26751 (Clean).
  <1778>BUF(379): Latch database page 26751, mode = S
  <1778>BUF(562): Unlatching database page 26751 (Clean).
  <1778>BUF(379): Latch database page 26751, mode = S
  <1778>BUF(562): Unlatching database page 26751 (Clean).
