Remarks

If you set the PipelineTracingPath property to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), you effectively disable pipeline tracing. However, if the value of the PipelineTracingPath property is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) and the value of the PipelineTracingEnabled property is true, event log errors occur. The preferred method to disable pipeline tracing is to set the PipelineTracingEnabled property to false.
