COACH Tracing User's Guide

As partner of the IST-COACH project, Lucent Technologies has contributed to OpenCCM by the addition of a tracing feature that can be used to monitor applications at the communication level.

Starting and Stopping the COACH Tracing Server

These script commands allow manipulation of the software:

Script	Description
`coach_tracing_start`	Starts the COACH Tracing Server and instantiates a GUI that will display intercepted communications on tracing-enabled ComponentServers. WARNING: This server needs a running CosNaming Service.
`coach_tracing_stop`	Stops the COACH Tracing Server, and destroys the GUI.

Once run, the server displays its monitoring GUI. Here is a snapshot taken while monitoring OpenCCM's demo1.
