When an error occurs while using the GUI tool, a pop-up error message is displayed and the same message is output
in a log file.
Log file type
The log files output by VSS Provider, and the GUI tool are managed by generation. The number
of generations and log file size can be specified in the setup file. See
and
“Generation management of log files” (page 65)
.
•
Log files — Logs are output in chronological order.
•
Backup log files — Backup files of the log files are generated during log rotation. A backup
log is generated when the file size of the log file exceeds the rule size.
<num>: The generation of the log (1 – the number of generation). Smaller numbers are
chronologically newer.
•
Temporary log files — Temporary log files are generated when VSS Provider and the GUI
Tool start. They are temporary files generated in order not to lose logs due to miswriting or
failure to write because a log file is locked.
•
Backup Temporary log files — Backup Temporary log files are generated during the log
rotation of the temporary log files. A backup temporary log file is generated when the file
size of the temporary log file exceeds the rule size.
<num>: The generation of the log (1 – the number of generation). Smaller numbers are
chronologically newer.
•
Overflow log files — Overflow log files are generated to prevent the loss of a log file when
a locked file is in the log rotation.
<num>: It is a backup log file during locking. YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS: A time stamp.
•
Overflow Temporary log files — Overflow Temporary log files are generated to prevent the
loss of a temporary log file when a locked file is in the log rotation.
<num>: The number of the backup temporary log file that is locked. YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS:
A time stamp.
NOTE:
Unlike the backup logs, the overflow log files and the overflow temporary log files are
not automatically removed. There is no problem when an overflow file that is older that the last
generation backup log is deleted.
