Chapter 14 Enabling and Tracking Syslogs Using Syslog Analyzer and Collector
Viewing Status and Subscribing to a Common Syslog Collector
DEBUG_MAX_FILE_SIZE The maximum size of the log file containing the debug information.
The default is set to 5 MB.
If the file size exceeds the limit that you have set, Syslog Collector writes
to another file, based on the number of backup files that you have specified
for the DEBUG_MAX_BACKUPS property.
For example, if you have specified the number of backups as 2, besides the
current log file, there will be two backup files, each 5MB in size. When
the current file exceeds the 5 MBlimit, Syslog Collector overwrites the
oldest of the two backup files.
DEBUG_MAX_BACKUPS The number of backup files that you require. The size of these will be the
value that you have specified for the DEBUG_MAX_FILE_SIZE
property.
