Log File Management
Each log file is a fixed length list of entries, as shown in Table 98. The log files rotate as they fill; they
do not wrap. The most recent events are always written to a .log file in the format
<logname>.log.
When the first log file is full its contents are archived and rotated to
logname.log.1.gz. New events
continue to be written to the file the
.log file. When the logname.log file fills a second time, its
contents rotate to
logname.log.1.gz and the contents of the previously designated .log.1.gz rotate
to
.log.2.gz. The log files rotate until five log files have been filled (.log, .log.1.gz, .log.2.gz.,
.log.3.gz, .log.4.gz). At that point the contents of the oldest log file, .log.4.gz, are deleted.
When ETEMS retrieves the log files from the ETEP, it gets the current and archived log files as
individual files. The concatenated file contains only the current log files. Archived log files are saved as
compressed .gz files. To view the archived files, use gzip, WinZip, or 7-zip to decompress them.
