Thank you everyone!  I will be testing this before I do in prod but I am glad 
the option is there!

You DO NOT need to do a signal or anything.

Changing the logging mode through the ARSetServerInfo call (which is what the 
vendor form uses to interact with the server information) will change the mode 
immediately and dynamically.  You do not need to do a server reset.

So, as folks have shared with you, just set up an escalation against the Server 
Information vendor form and change the logging setting when you want to turn 
things on or off.

By the way, you can do the same thing -- using escalations, using filters, 
using the API, using Web Services, ... -- to any of the server information 
settings that are exposed through this form.  Be careful of some of the more 
involved ones (things like passwords and port settings) because the actual 
value is a formatted string with the UI pulling it out into table fields and 
then reformatting it for submission.
If you go direct, you can change these values, but you need to do the 
formatting of things yourself.

I hope this helps,

Doug Mueller

Easy ... Look to see if you have a form on your system of "Configuration 
ARDBC".  That should be a vendor form of your server's ar.ini file.   You can 
update the logging value thru a set fields or push fields action.  Turning on 
logging means changing the value for where Name="Debug-mode".

The only thing I don't remember off hand is if you then have to do an arsignal 
to have the server read the configuration settings

Subject: Turn on Filter Logs for a Time Frame

**
Can I write an escalation that will turn on the filter logging?  I want to 
catch one of my feeds that happens at 11:45 pm but I tend to be asleep at that 
time of day.  I was wondering if anyone had written some escalations that would 
turn on logging then turn it off at a particular time.
