BINSTORAGE Emitter Properties

Writes to Microsoft Azure table storage in binary format.

Before you can view the trace files output by the BINSTORAGE emitter you download them from Microsoft Azure table storage to a local file using the ctfazure utility. Once you have done this you can view the local file using the CTFViewer utility.

To enable the BINSTORAGE emitter, specify the following statement in the Consolidated Tracing Facility configuration file:

mftrace.dest = binstorage

The following list shows the properties you can set to control the behavior of the BINSTORAGE emitter:
