Limiting size by restricting the number of messages

The /AgentSetup/maxAgentMessageLimit configuration variable determines the number of messages written to the PATROL Agent error log.

 

 You can limit the number of messages that are written to the agent error log using the agent configuration variable, maxAgentMessageLimit. When the number of messages in agent error log reaches the limit, the agent stops data collection for all the the KM's.

When the limit is reached, the following block is written to the agent error log:

Mon Aug 14 11:45:22 2000 Maximum number of messages (12) logged. >>>NO MORE MESSAGES WILL BE LOGGED<<<
