About Kernel Trace for OS/2

Kernel Trace for OS/2 is software designed to reduce the cost of ownership of OS/2 systems.  The most comprehensive commercial software of its kind, Kernel Trace leverages the hooks provided for an installable security subsystem by OS/2, to collect useful information about the activity of OS/2 applications and of the kernel itself.   This information is written to a binary file for later analysis using the Golden Code Trace Analyzer.  Kernel Trace makes it easy to gather traces, whether on a local machine, or on the most remote machine in the enterprise.  It is easily deployed through standard software distribution.  Additional information, including product brochures and documentation, are available at www.goldencode.com.
