Understanding Log Files
Event Logging Client refers to a background
application that gathers log records from one or
more MP CPUs via the Ethernet network
connection with TCP/IP network protocol.

A log file stores event records in ASCII text format
and has a default size of the number of logs
created in 1 month.
Log files have the following filename format:
ADUltraCPUxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx_month_yyyy.log
where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
represents the IP address or
network device name of the MP CPU sending the
event record, and
month_yyyy
represents the English month (spelled
out) with four digits for the year; for example,
ADUltraCPU_192.168.0.2_March_2007.log
.
Using a log information rate of 100Bps as an
example, approximately 124 days of logged events
can be stored in 1GB of disk space.
Note
: There is no maximum disk space used by
the logging client. Therefore, it is important to know
that the logging client will deplete disk resources
unless old log files are deleted or taken off the
computer.
Figure 20 is an example of a log file.
