Batch file to save log info help.
« on: November 22, 2011, 01:48:21 PM »
Hi,

I was told there is a way to create a batch file that will save data logs when some event happens... See we are having communication/network issues and we are constantly logging information in hopes to capture the cause of the problems. The logs are setup to capture ten 1 MB files, and once it gets to 10 files it deletes the oldest to add the newest. What we want to do is have a batch file running to collect the log files and save them to another folder once the network issues appears. It would also be nice to limit the size of the folder we are saving the files to, so we don't use all the space on the server.

Is this a feasible request? I never heard of a batch file until a week ago and I found this site searching for how to create one... I read the section on batch files and this is over my head.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
