Can I record multiple copies of an application on different machines that are all writing to a remote database?
Yes, start the Code Level Black Box on every machine where the application process is running and create code level trace logs with time information. Make sure that each machine is synchronized as the Black Box takes its time stamp from the local machine. Open the Trace Options window – Advanced – Select Time stamps. This will display the time a function is called and the time it returns. Comparing log files with time information will show when each application is contacting the database. Question 47 Tracing multiple applications (exe), do we need multiple Black Boxes, or can it be done via one Black Box and one TCI file. Answer: A trace must be done with one Black Box and one TCI file where you include all the processes that you want to record.
