How the Log Archiver Works

Every six hours the Zerto Virtual Manager checks for the existence of the log_archive_config.xml file. If the file exists, the Zerto Virtual Manager does the following:

Copies all the Zerto Virtual Manager and VRA logs from the last six hours to the folder defined in the ArchivePath element.
Checks the dates of all the logs in the log archive folder and deletes those logs that are older than the value specified in the ArchiveSpanInDays element.

Note: If you want to change the time the Zerto Virtual Manager checks for the existence of the log_archive_config.xml file from the six hour default value, contact Zerto support.
