Using persisted logging in OmniServer

Steps to enable persisted logging in OmniServer:

1. With the OmniServer Configuration interface open, go to View -> General Options.
2. In the OmniServer General Options window, select the Logger tab.
3. Enable persisted logging by checking "Start Persisted Logging To File" setting.
4. Once enabled, you will have the following options:
   • Create a New Log File after - two options are provided that determines when file spanning will create a new log file.
     • Events - selecting this option and entering the desired number of events allows file spanning to create a new log file after the specified number of events has been logged to the current log file.  Valid range is 1,000 events up to a maximum of 10,000 events.
     • Duration (ms) - selecting this option and entering the desired time in milliseconds allows file spanning to create a new log file after the specified amount of time has elapsed.  Valid range is 10,000 ms up to a maximum of 2,147,483,647 ms.
   • Name - field specifies the file location and root file name that OmniServer should use for creating log files.  Current timestamp will be appended to the root file name upon the file being created.
5. By default, a maximum of 10 log files will be maintained until manually deleted.  As additional log files are created, the oldest log file will be removed (First In, First Out).
6. To easily delete multiple old log files within a date range, the following settings are provided:
   • Enable old file deletion by checking the "Delete" setting under the "Delete Log Files" heading.
   • Note:  Directory Name is automatically filled based on the location where log files are currently stored.
   • Once enabled, you will need to specify a "To" date and "From" date that defines the range of old files that you would like to delete from the specified directory.
