LOGFILERETENTION n
Arguments
n
Specifies the number of log files to keep.
Default
By default, 10 files are kept.
Considerations
• Setting the parameter to a value 0 disables log file retention.
• If log file retention is enabled, a minimum of 10 is enforced by this parameter.
• See section "Logfile/Auditfile Rollover" in the "Monitoring and Auditing" chapter for details on file rollover.
• The file security set for the current log file (e.g. via FUP SECURE command) will be used for subsequently
created log files. The very first log file will have the default file security of user super.super.
