If the server hosting the Archiver role has low disk space, you can change the
retention period, and save location of the Archiver logs to free up disk space and prevent
issues with the server performance.
What you should know
The
Archiver.gconfig file has two sections:
ArchiverRole
and
ArchiverAgent. The settings in the file apply to all the Archiver roles or
Archiver agents that are hosted on the server. The Archiver log settings are modified in
the
ArchiverAgent section of the file.
CAUTION:
Only modify a
.gconfig file if you are sure that the changes are valid.
Incorrect code in a .gconfig file can cause issues on your system
or cause your system to go offline.
Procedure
-
On the Archiver server, do one of the following:
-
Open the Archiver.gconfig file and change the following
options in the
ArchiverAgent
section:
NOTE: If the
Archiver.gconfig file already existed on the
computer but the options are not listed, it is due to one of the following reasons:
- You have an outdated version of the file. Generate the file using step
1.
- The file was previously generated for the Archiver role (), and you are missing the ArchiverAgent section of the
file. Generate the file using step 1.
- If you are using Archiver failover, the Archiver role might be running on a
different server. Generate the file on the other server and copy it to this
server.
-
Save the file and restart the Archiver role.
