  1. Browse to the file location and open the configuration file.
  2. Add the following entries:
    • If you want to turn off log archiving, add <add key="LogArchiver.Enabled" value="false" /> to the configuration file.

    • If you want to change the free disk space threshold, add <add key="LogArchiver.MinDiskUsed-Percent" value="MinDiskUsedPercent" /> to the configuration file.

    • If you want to change the maximum size for the archived files, add <add key="LogArchiver.MaxDiskUsedMB" value="MaxDiskUsedMB" /> to the configuration file.

    • If you want to change the number of days to keep the archived logs, add <add key="LogArchiver.DaysToKeep" value="DaystoKeep" /> to the configuration file.
