Troubleshooting

The framework supports Event Tracing for Windows (ETW).

You can add the listener below to the miiserver.exe.config.xml in the Bin subdirectory of the Synchronization Service installation directory (typically C:\Program Files\Microsoft Forefront Identity Manager\2010\Synchronization Service\Bin)

<source name="FIM.MARE" switchValue="Verbose">
  <listeners>
    <remove name='Default' />
    <add name="FIM.MARE" type="System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener"  initializeData="c:\temp\FIM.MARE.log" />
  </listeners>
</source>

Using DbgView

When configuring and creating/testing, you can use a tool such as DbgView (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896647) to catch logging information from MARE.
