Create a new database for Trace parser
Contents
When you do troubleshooting actions on any VM lower than D365FO 10.X.X (i.e. AX2012, D365FO 7.X, D365FO 8.X), chance is that no database was pre-created for trace’s data. You will need to register a new one.
Open Trace Parser from Start meu. Choose File > Register.
Register a new database. DO NOT choose any existing database.
A new box will appear asking if you want to create it. Choose Yes.
A new database will be created for you in SSMS.
Now, you can start analysing trace files using Trace Parser.
