Setting Up the Zerto Log Archiver
The Zerto Log Archiver is set up using an XML-based configuration file.
To configure the Zerto Log Archiver:
1. | Copy the following XML to an editor. |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LogArchiveConfiguration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <ArchivePath>D:\ZertoLogs</ArchivePath> <ArchiveSpanInDays>7</ArchiveSpanInDays> </LogArchiveConfiguration> |
2. | Edit the ArchivePath and ArchiveSpanInDays values: |
ArchivePath: The path in the Zerto Virtual Manager machine where the log archives are saved.
ArchiveSpanInDays: The number of days the log archives are saved.
3. | Save the XML with the name log_archive_config.xml to the folder where Zerto is installed. The default location is C:\Program Files\Zerto\Zerto Virtual Replication. |
4. | Restart the Zerto Virtual Manager Windows service to start log archiving. |
5. | Repeat this procedure for every Zerto Virtual Manager in the environment for which you want to archive the logs. |
