3PAR VSS Provider for Microsoft Windows 1.6 User’s Guide

The file vsstrace.reg is located under the 3PAR VSS Provider for Microsoft Windows

installation directory. Since VSS logging is volume based, the log file cannot be on the volume

as part of the shadow copy set. The default location for the TraceFile is set to:

c:\vsstrace.txt

. Modify it to fit into your system if necessary.

Use Windows Explorer to locate the vsstrace.reg file. Double-click on this file to make it

active.

The trace log will be appended. In order to receive meaningful information, clear out the

contents before a new run begins.

To turn off the VSS tracing, remove the following registry key from the registry database:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\VSS\Debug\Tracing]

NOTE: You can use the

ProvCfg.exe

utility with the

Log

subcommand to

specify the appropriate log level. See
