Configuring a Log Archive
Configuring a log archive is carried out in the Settings tab of the log management utility.

event logs should be moved after archiving.
Note
To set the path using standard Windows methods, click
2. In the Archive logs every...hours field (2), enter the interval for event log archiving, in
hours.
3. In the Log restrictions group, set the following parameters:
a. In the Retention period field (3), indicate the maximum retention time in days of a
log in the archive, after which the log is deleted.
b. In the Size field (4), indicate the maximum size of the archive, above which the
oldest logs are deleted from the archive.
Note
Archive disk space restrictions take priority over log retention time
restrictions. For example, the oldest logs will be automatically deleted even
if their retention time has not expired, if the archive size has exceeded the
maximum value
