Log Archiver

The log archiver consists of three parts: an archiver, a purger, and a scheduler.

The archiver, when run, archives all the inactive logfiles on one or more hosts within the Grid.

The purger, when run, purges old archives in the database, for example to free up disk space or remove archives which are no longer of interest to keep.

The archives are placed in the database and can be read in the Log Archive Viewer.

Note: Additionally log archiving will run when un-installing hosts if the "archiveLogsInDatabase" flag is passed to the uninstaller..
