Enabling the diagnostic trace service
Use this task to enable the diagnostic trace service, which is the logging service that can manage the amount of detail contained in the service component event.
You must have the business process and human task containers configured to allow Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) logging and audit logging.
The diagnostic trace service is the only logger type that can provide the level of detail required to capture the detail contained in the elements of service component events. You must enable the diagnostic trace service before you start the process server in order to log events. The service must also be enabled if you use the administrative console to select service component event points for monitoring using the CEI server.
Procedure

What to do next
