Maintaining and archiving logs

Caching Proxy uses a plug-in to manage logs. For further information, see the reference page in Appendix B. Configuration file directives for the configuration file directive Midnight -- Specify the API plugin used to archive logs.

You can specify how to archive and remove daily logs. The basic options are:

By default, the current and previous days' logs are never deleted by any maintenance agent. All of the current day's logs and the previous day's cache access log are never compressed by any maintenance agent.

To configure log maintenance, in the Configuration and Administration forms, select Server Configuration -> Logging -> Log Archiving. In this form, use the drop-down box to specify the maintenance method.
