D.4.6 logs Subdirectory

The logs subdirectory contains a log file for each component running on a host computer.

Each log file in the logs subdirectory appears in a subdirectory with the date as its name, in the format YYYYMMDD, where YYYY is the four-digit year, MM is the two-digit month, and DD is the two-digit day. The subdirectory’s date is based on the processing date for data to which the log files pertain.

The IMC utility, runIMC.sh, cleans up the logs subdirectory. The IMC utility’s configuration file defines the number of days that log files age before their removal. The following table identifies log files for each component, based on the file name’s prefix.
