How Arcserve Backup Labels Log Files
Arcserve Backup labels the log files using the following guidelines:
- If TAPE.LOG reaches a specified value, Arcserve Backup renames TAPE.LOG to TAPE.LOG.0001, and creates a new TAPE.LOG file.
- If TAPE.LOG reaches a specified value for the second time, Arcserve Backup renames TAPE.LOG.0001 to TAPE.LOG.0002, renames TAPE.LOG to TAPE.LOG.0001, and creates a new TAPE.LOG file.
- If TAPE.LOG reaches a specified value for the third time, Arcserve Backup renames TAPE.LOG.0002 to TAPE.LOG.0003, renames TAPE.LOG.0001 to TAPE.LOG.0002, renames TAPE.LOG to TAPE.LOG.0001, and creates a new TAPE.LOG file.
This process continues in a cyclical manner. Arcserve Backup always retains the latest three log files.
Important! Arcserve Backup calculates the value in which a new log file is created based upon the amounts that you specify in the Limit Log Size By and Log File Count options. For example, if you specify a Log Limit Size By amount of 500 MB and a Log File Count of 10, Arcserve Backup creates a new log file when the current log size exceeds (500 divided by 10) 50 MB.
