4. In the Archive by frequency field, select the interval for archiving current data log files: daily
(every day at midnight local time), weekly (every Sunday at midnight) or monthly (the first
day of each month at midnight).
5. In the Archive by size field, enter a size from 1-2000 MB. When a current file reaches this size,
it will be closed and archived.
6. In the Number of archived versions field, select a value (1-10). This specifies the maximum
number of archived versions of a file (based on the file name) that will be retained. When this
number is exceeded, the oldest archived file will be deleted.
For example, if a value of 5 is specified, up to five archived versions of each file will be
retained. When a subsequent archive operation occurs for that log file (triggered either by the
archive frequency or size value being reached), the oldest archived version will be deleted.
Changing this value affects all archived files.
7. Click Save.
