Increase the size of the Rapid Recovery AppRecovery.log files -
Description
A high-activity core generates large amounts of log data, leading to the frequent recycling of log files. Consequently, the duration for which information is retained in the logs is significantly reduced. -
Résolution
Note: If you run a repair installation or upgrade the application, this setting will likely revert, and you will need to perform the modification again.
If you are increasing the size of the logs, it is crucial to ensure that there is enough storage space to accommodate the larger log files. By default, Rapid Recovery creates 3 log files, each of 25 MB, resulting in a total of 75 MB of log data. If you increase the log file size to 10 GB, you will need to ensure there is enough space to store up to 30 GB of logs in the default path.
Please verify that your storage volume has sufficient space to handle this increase. If necessary, you can change the path of the log files to another volume with adequate space. For detailed instructions on how to change the log file path, please refer to the following Knowledge Base article: Changing the location of log files in Rapid Recovery .
Follow the next steps to increase the size of the log files.

- Open the file in notepad.
- Find the following line: archiveAboveSize
- The default size is 26214400 bytes or 25MB
