1) In the old server you can type "CASDEBUG = NNN" from the vxWorks shell,
and
in the new server you can set the debug level from the command line.
2) From the vxWorks shell you can frequently type "dbcar 1" at the vxWorks
shell prompt to see the unresolved DB links. There is a similar command in
the
sequencer - as I recall it is call "seqShow".
3) I frequently use the Solaris command "snoop dstport 5064" to watch the
UDP name resolution traffic. The command "snoop dstport 5065" can be used
to watch the server beacons on your LAN. You will typically need to be root
to run this program.

As I recall Multinet supplies a similar facility to Solaris's "snoop" called
tcpdump.
