====== Log Files ======
The DV2000 produces many logs. These log files are all located in the folder //\tracelogs//. These logs may be viewed either by TraceDisplay or any text based editor. Their file extension is **ltt**.

===== Example =====
The files are made up of multiple columns.

===== Archiving =====
Logs are created in the //\tracelogs// folder and then based on configuration located in System Configuration | Site | Events...

The default retention is **10 days**. Systems which are functioning properly can be set to as little as 1 day. Many sites prefer setting the retention to 3 which provides logs for any events which may have occurred over the weekend.

This is controlled via the Windows Task Scheduler. The task name for this is **DV2000 logarchive**.

  * Logs are automatically generated each day automatically based on the date change. Inactive logs from the previous day remain here and are suffixed with the date time it was created.
  * When the **logarchive** task is performed. In active log files located in //\tracelogs\// are moved to //\tracelogs\archive//.
  * Files with the **ltt** extension are then kept for the number of days configured as **Archive older log files**.
  * Files which are over the retention are then compressed into a zip file for another number of days based on **Archive older log files** setting.
  * Compressed zip files which are over the retention date are then deleted.

==== Example ====
For example if **Archive older log files** is set to 3. There should be 4 **ltt** files and 5 zip files. The reason for the quantity difference is when the task is performed and when the file was actually created.
