Changing the retention period for log data

You may specify the number of days that data is retained in log files before it is purged. The default setting is 20 days. Log file data is automatically purged after it reaches this age.

To change the retention period for log data
  1. Use a text editor to open <M-Business_Home>/conf/sync.conf.default.

  2. Locate the following line:

    SyncPref DaysOfLogDataToKeep 20

    If you have changed the default setting, a number other than 20 may appear.

  3. Change the number to the number of days you want your log data to be retained.

  4. Save the changes.

  5. Run the defaults_setup script located in the <M-Business_Home>/conf directory.

    Windows: defaults_setup.bat

    UNIX: defaults_setup

  6. Stop and restart M-Business Server services.
