The following list of variables belonging to the Config.ini configuration file's [SYSTEM] section pertain to logging.
Indicates the frequency in seconds at which a check on available disk space is done.
Related Variables: The DiskPcentLogRestart variable is used with the DiskFreeSpaceCheck and DiskFreeSpaceDrives variables that indicate which drives are to be checked and how frequently. The DiskPcentLogStop variable is also related in that it indicates the maximum percentage of disk space to be reached after which all logging will stop.
Default: DiskFreeSpaceCheck = 600
Enables you to set the application to check specific drives to ensure that free space is available. The options for DiskFreeSpaceDrives are the same as the attributes for a DriveInfo call:
|
Value |
Description |
|
0 |
Do not check any drives (default) |
|
1 |
Check the floppy disk drive |
|
2 |
Check a fixed drive (hard disk) |
|
4 |
Check a remote drive (network disk) |
|
8 |
Check the CD-ROM drive |
Related Variables: The DiskPcentLogRestart variable is used with the DiskFreeSpaceCheck and DiskFreeSpaceDrives variables that indicate which drives are to be checked and how frequently. The DiskPcentLogStop variable is also related in that it indicates the maximum percentage of disk space to be reached after which all logging will stop.
Default: DiskFreeSpaceDrives = 0
Indicates the percentage of disk space used at which suspended logging will restart.
Related Variables: The DiskPcentLogRestart variable is used with the DiskFreeSpaceCheck and DiskFreeSpaceDrives variables that indicate which drives are to be checked and how frequently. The DiskPcentLogStop variable is also related in that it indicates the maximum percentage of disk space to be reached after which all logging will stop.
Default: DiskPcentLogRestart = 85
Indicates the percentage of disk space used at which all logging requiring further disk space will stop.
Related Variables: The DiskPcentLogStop variable is related to the DiskPcentLogRestart, the DiskFreeSpaceCheck variable, and the DiskFreeSpaceDrives variable that indicate which drives are to be checked and how frequently. The DiskPcentLogStop variable indicates the maximum percentage of disk space to be reached after which all logging will stop.
Default: DiskPcentLogStop = 95
Indicates the maximum number of log files that are accessible per logger tag. The GetLog function will not retrieve more than FileListMax files, and only FileListMax file names will be saved in the .LOG file for the tag. For information on the GetLog function, please refer to Retrieving Logged Data Using GetLog.
Default: FileListMax = 1000
Indicates the path at which the data files for tags whose data is being recorded by logger tags are stored. You must append the name of the directory you specify for the LogPath with a backslash (e.g. "LogData\").
If set to invalid (as it is by default), LogPath will automatically save the data files to the application directory.
Note: This path can be a relative path (e.g. "MyData\"), or an absolute path (e.g. "C:\VTS\MYData\"). If the directory you reference does not exist, VTS will create it for you. A relative path is recommended, as it enables you to move the application without consequence at a later date. You should decide upon the path to which you wish the data files to be saved prior to creating your application. The name given each data file is, by default, tagname.DAT (i.e. the name of the tag whose data is being logged by the logger tag).
Default: LogPath =
Indicates whether the designated primary server for the Log Manager service will be updated with logged data from the backup Log Manager server in the event that the primary server has failed, the backup server has assumed the role of server for the Log Manager, and then the designated primary server comes back online.
Default: LoggerServerUpdate = 0
Indicates whether or not the Log Manager is to be registered as a service.
If set to 0 (false), then the Log Manager is not registered as a service.
If set to 1 (true), then the Log Manager is registered as a service (default).
Default: LogRPCEnable = 1
