DIAGNOSTICS VSS_WRITER
The following FairCom DB configuration option enables VSS writer diagnostic logging (this can be enabled dynamically on the fly with server administrator utilities):
DIAGNOSTICS VSS_WRITER
When enabled, the VSS writer logs diagnostic messages to CTSTATUS.FCS. These messages indicate the sequence of operations to which the VSS writer is responding. Some examples are shown below:
