In addition to the overview information provided in the Coordinator Status pane on the Overview page, you can obtain coordinator status and statistics through the following options:

•

The Coordinator Statistics page which provides a global view of all installed coordinators, including the current status and other usage statistics for each coordinator.

The Change Auditor Coordinator Status dialog, which is accessed using the coordinator system tray icon, provides the status and usage statistics for a single coordinator.

You can also view or retrieve coordinator trace logs from the Coordinator Statistics page or by using the coordinator system tray icon.
