The trace settings in DSM.OPT should read:

   TRACEFILE SYS:ADSM\TRACE.OUT
   TRACEFLAGS INSTR_CLIENT_DETAIL

The TRACEFILE setting can point to any valid volume/directory/filename
combination. The statistics will be displayed in there.

Assuming that this has been done correctly, the next thing is to be sure you
are running the client in batch mode, for example:

   LOAD DSMC INCREMENTAL

or

   LOAD DSMC SELECTIVE SYS:* -SUBDIR=YES

The trace does not work in loop or scheduler modes.

After the command completes, you'll want to record the ending statistics.
You'll also want the output from

   QUERY NODE nodename FORMAT=DETAILED

as the Pct. Idle, Pct. Comm., and Pct. Media wait statistics are also useful in
shedding light on performance problems.

Subject: Trace Statistics Question

Hi everyone!

We are trying to produce the statistics from the TRACE flag
"INSTR_CLIENT_DETAIL" in our Netware client options.

We can't find the output from this flag.  We have looked in the trace file
for the client, but can't find it!   Are we looking in the wrong place?  Do we
need another flag in addition to  "INSTR_CLIENT_DETAIL" ?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
