>level 1 dump the buffer headers only level 2 include the cache and

>block level 4 dump the working set lists and the buffer headers and the
>cache header for each block level 5 include the transaction header from
>each block level 6 include a full dump of each block

>Most levels high than 6 are equivalent to 6, except that levels 8 and 9 are
