Hi

currently running online database backup with a trace:

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRACE                  ALL
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Specify the trace file for BACKINT/ADSM to store all trace information
# (if TRACE ON), full path and name of file.
# Note: for an actual trace the string '%BID' will be replaced by the
# current backupid.
# (...\backint_%BID.trace changes to ...\backint_SAP___9607161322.trace).
# Default: stdout.
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------
#TRACEFILE              /oracle/C11/dbs/backint_%BID.trace
TRACEFILE              /tmp/backint_%BID.trace

-rw-------   1 oras02   dba      50070480 Apr 29 11:18 
backint_SAPS02A0DF2YYNT1.trace.prole


because of this backup performance dropped considerably ..... 
is there a way to stop the trace while backup still running ?

thnks.
