The OCSTracer.exe tool is a command-line utility (part of the Lync Server 2013 Debugging Tools, as the previous tools), which enables logging from a command line. We will see some practical examples in this section.
- From a command line, go to the
C:Program FilesMicrosoft Lync Server 2013Debugging Toolsfolder and run the following command to log the S4 component, with verbose level (TL_Verbose) on the TF_Component as follows:ocstracer start /component:S4,TL_Verbose,TF_Component - To stop all the tracing, we can use the
ocstracer stopcommand. If we want to stop only a part of the tracing, we have to launch a command similar to the one used for the launch, replacingstartwithstop. - We will receive an on-screen notification about the number of buffers and events recorded, as shown in the following screenshot:
- To select a path and a filename for the log, we can use the following command (the selected path for the example is
c: emp, and the filename istest.txt):Ocstracer start /component:S4,TL_Verbose,TF_Component /logfilefolder:c: emp /logfilename:test.txt
To modify the default settings for OCSTracer, it is also possible to edit the OCSTracer.ini file. All the default starting parameters, including the log file's path, are stored here.
