Log Destinations
All log files related to Vertigo Suite products are centrally archived in the Xmedia Server
•
L OG TO CONSOLE : Currently not available for external use. The events are written to a
console for Grass Valley personnel to use for testing and debugging tasks.
• F ILE S IZE - Sets the maximum memory size for each log file created per run. The default
value is 6 MB.
• F ILE C OUNT - Specifies the maximum number of DataServer*.log files that will be
stored. A large enough number should be chosen to store over a day's worth of logs.
This way if a problem happens the relevant log files will be available. Once the
maximum number of files is reached, the oldest log file will be replaced by a new one.
The default value is 20.
