When diagnosing problems, it is often helpful to enable NESCM’s trace functionality. NESCM reports many problems and failures in the trace logs.
On the server, NESCM reports information to the NMAS trace functionality, which is integrated with eDirectory tracing. To turn on tracing, use the NetIQ eDirectory iMonitor tool and select the NMAS option in the trace configuration settings. For more information about iMonitor, see “Using NetIQ iMonitor”, in the NetIQ eDirectory 8.8 SP8 Administration Guide.
On the client, NESCM reports information to the NMAS Client trace functionality. To turn on tracing, use the NMAS Client Configuration tool (ncc.exe).
The following example enables tracing:
ncc.exe -ta file=trace_file status=on mode=append
After turning tracing on, reboot the workstation to ensure that all processes use the new settings. The trace messages are written to the specified file.
