    you should first convert the daemon.raw file to daemon.log using the following command
    nsr_render_log -mepathy daemn.raw > daemon.log

    after this you will be able to read the log file as normal txt file

    You need to run nsr_render_log command to render the daemon.raw (or other .raw files such as nsrxchsv.raw, nsrsqlsv.raw, etc...). This is a very versatile command with lots of opentions for example you can run:
    nsr_render_log -S "May 20 13:15" -E "May 22 20:45" daemon.raw > daemon.txt
    -S is for start time and -E for end time.
    you can use -S today to get just the transactions for today. Please check the Command Reference Guide as there are several other usrful options.

    Regards...

    Run through command line
    nsr_render_log -mepathy daemon.raw > daemon.log

    Then read daemon.log

    run the command from command line from the directory /nsr/logs . It will create a file with the name daemon.log. You need to open this file in word pad

    More you know about NW it is easier to read it. For example, you may get some messages inside which might indicate error and in real life you could ignore them. Simply start following it up and soon you will get the feeling.
