sys.trace_events (Transact-SQL)
The sys.trace_events catalog view contains a list of all SQL trace events. These trace events do not change for a given version of the SQL Server Database Engine.
Important
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature. Use Extended Event catalog views instead.
For more information about these trace events, see SQL Server Event Class Reference.
