Sometimes they are simply annoying,
sometimes they are quite troublesome and sometimes they prevent any further
work: Crashes of the Notes client or the Domino server.
Since version 6 (at least) NSD is running
after a crash to take a snapshot of the memory, the currently running tasks,
the configation and many, many more informations. Depending how long the
client or server had run so far, the log file written can easily be 10
MB and more in size. Certainly, you might open it with a good text editor
and search for "error", but this would be a quite laborious process.
But it's a lot faster to use the LND tool - the Lotus Notes Diagnostic
tool.
This program can open nsd*.log files
and analyze them automatically. The results are written into a Notes database
for further investigation:
Now, this looks completely different.
This new version also searches the knowledgebase
after the analysis automatically.
