  • 1.  Logging: MaxFiles recommended value

    Posted Oct 16, 2024 05:24 AM

    This KB article (https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/179702/how-to-configure-logging-on-the-notifica.html) mentioned about recommended MaxFiles and MaxSize values for troubleshooting purpose.
    What is the recommended MaxFiles and MaxSize values in a normal operation?
    Can we set the MaxFiles to more than 200?

    Hello Ain,

    The MaxFiles can be set to 200 or more (depending on how big your C:\ drive is) for normal operation.  You can also increase the MaxSize beyond 2000 if you'd like.  

    The limiting factor is the amount of disk space you want to use for Logging.  200 files of 2000 kb is 400 MB, so be careful, as it adds up fast.

    Hope that helps,
