Change the size limit of the log file

You can change the size limit of the log file for each KCM Document Processor.

  1. Start KCM Core Administrator.
  2. Under Servers, click a server.
  3. In the right pane, select the Logging tab and make a selection where needed.
    • To make the logging size unlimited, select Keep all log files.

    • To limit the logging size, select Rotate log files.

      This option has the following additional settings.

      To limit the size of the log file per KCM Document Processor, specify the size in KB in Maximum size of the log files. The default is 10000 KB (10 files of 1000 KB each).

      To configure the number of log files to keep, specify the number in Keep the last log files. During startup, KCM Core rotates existing log files and creates a new log file. Log files are also rotated if the maximum size of a log file is reached. Old files are named [[logfiles] [number]].log.

      To keep all log files but still limit the total size, you can select a high number of files, such as 9999, in combination with a small size log file, such as 1000 KB. The total log size per KCM Document Processor is then limited to the number of files multiplied by the maximum log file size.

  4. Click Save & Apply.
