NSD in Lotus Notes and Domino

NSD a program that comes with both the Notes Client and the Domino Server. It takes control in the event of a crash, and writes a diagnostic log that is frequently very helpful in figuring out what went wrong. If you ever experience a crash in Notes or Domino, nsd.exe will automatically come online and do its thing. You'll find the resulting crash log in the IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT sub-folder in your Notes/Domino data directory.

How to read NSD FILES.


Look for the word fatal, underneath it you will find the current thread. You can kind of determine what the server/client was doing at the moment of the crash.

For example, here's an except from an NSD

############################################################
### FATAL THREAD 02/47 [ nHTTP:0b08:0d53]

So, in this example, HTTP caused the server crash and launched NSD.
