Where does Trace.TraceInformation log data when running an azure worker in the emulator?

Question

I created a windows azure worker role. I used the default templates and the default app.config for the worker role. ``` ``` The worker role is using Trace.TraceInformation to log messages. In which file does the information get logged?

Accepted Answer

Diagnostics data collected by your roles is stored in Windows Azure Storage Tables & Blob Containers. Assuming you have configured diagnostics properly, you should see a table called `WADLogsTable` in a storage account specified via `Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Plugins.Diagnostics.ConnectionString` config setting in your role's `cscfg` file. This is where you will see the data. You may find this link helpful regarding configuring diagnostics for your worker role: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/gg433048.aspx.
