Hi all,
I recently hit a wall with ISA 2004 MSDE logging.
My typical log size is in the 2-8 KB range, with occasional forays into the
1+GB range on really noisy days (script kiddie holidays?).
I believe MSDE has a "total files" upper limit, but I'm not sure exactly what
that value is (investigation on a non-production ISA). I ended up writing a
maintenance script that I run daily to only keep the last 30 days' logs "live"
in MSDE; all others are detached (not deleted, just removed from MSDE tracking).
The point of this mail is to ask you guys what you usually find for the typical
log size on the SBS/ISA combinations you support?
I don't need the log contents, location or anything more than file sizes.
This information is requested to help the ISA SE team decide how best to deal
with this scenario.
Thanx!
