Ned here. Part two today covers the nested debug field format and what module ID's mean. If Part 2 makes no sense, you probably haven't read Part 1.
Nested Field Format
When examining the nested (+) entries it is important to understand all of the fields that can be displayed in the debug logs. These fields give detailed information about file and folder replication, especially regarding database entries, USN changes, and RDC data. These are implemented through LogNewLine.
Below is a table describing all of these nested fields and their data output that you will see in the debug logs. All entries marked with an asterisk (*) are Windows Server 2008 only. Otherwise they apply to both Windows Server 2003 R2 as well as 2008. There is also an example of the log entry for each table.
