Interpreting ORB traces

The ORB trace file contains messages, trace points, and wire tracing. This section describes the various types of trace.

ORB trace message
An example of an ORB trace message.
Comm traces
An example of comm (wire) tracing.
Client or server
From the first line of the summary of the message, you can identify whether the host to which this trace belongs is acting as a server or as a client. OUT GOING means that the message has been generated on the workstation where the trace was taken and is sent to the wire.
Service contexts
The header also records three service contexts, each consisting of a context ID and context data.
