This variable is the amount of time in

VolServ is to back up the logs every day,

 

 

the variable is set to 24.

 

 

The number of days of logs can be

 

 

controlled by modifying the NUM_LOG_DAYS

 

 

environment variable in the

 

 

$VS_DIR/config/envarr.config file.

 

 

This variable tells VolServ how many days

 

 

of logs to track. Any logs older than the
