ADMINISTERING

Trace
Tests a connection to a server.

Details

This command shows detailed information about each server hop and is useful in troubleshooting network connection problems. This command works the same way as "Trace connections," when you choose File -> Preferences -> Notes Preferences in the Notes® client.

When you attempt to connect to a server, network trace information automatically appears on the status bar of a Notes workstation or on the server console, depending on where you initiated the connection attempt. You can use the NOTES.INI setting Console_LogLevel to control the level of detail that messages on the status bar contain. Trace information is recorded in the log file (LOG.NSF).

Syntax

 Trace servername 

Examples

To trace a path to a server, enter:

Trace servername

To trace a specific port, enter:

Trace portname!!!servername
