You can start and control the Host On-Demand Transport trace facility for an emulator

(HODDebug.html), but is commented out. If you want to send either of
these files to a user so the user can capture a trace, uncomment the
TraceOptions parameter. You can also add the TraceOptions
parameter to any custom HTML you have created. Custom HTML files must also include

sessions that include the problem determination components.

parameter, the server:
