OLEDB DataRead Event Class

The OLEDB DataRead event class occurs when SQL Server calls an OLE DB provider for distributed queries and remote stored procedures. Include this event class in traces that monitor when SQL Server makes a data request call to the OLE DB provider.

When the OLEDB DataRead class is included in a trace, the amount of overhead incurred will be high. It is recommended that you limit the use of this event class to traces that monitor specific problems for brief periods of time.
