Log File Size

When a log file name is specified in the Logging tab, the adapter does the following tasks:

Procedure 

1. Creates a file with no extension, using the file name specified in TIBCO Designer.
2. Redirects all trace statements generated by this configuration to that file until it reaches the default file size of 30 KB.
3. When this file size is reached (that is, as soon as the file is greater than or equal to the limit), renames the current file to filename.1 and creates a new file with no extension.
Note: The log file can be slightly larger than the limit because the new file is only created after the limit has been reached.
4. Repeats this process of rolling log files and renaming files each time a new file is generated, until three log files exist.

With these default settings, the adapter instance overwrites the oldest file after 3 files have been created and the last file reaches 3 KB. For instructions on changing the default settings, see Using Advanced Logging Features.
