Archiving event records

The Event Log records are archived in an ASCII, comma-delimited
format. The format is compatible with Lotus 1-2-3, dBase III Plus, and
other similar spreadsheet software. The file names use the format
LOyymmdd.XXX, where:

LO is always the first two letters

yy = the year of the archive

mm = the month of the archive

dd = the day of the archive

XXX = extension, consecutively numbered from 001 to 999

The month, date, and year used in the archive file name are those selected
in the Archive Cutoff Date screen, not the current date.

Each time archiving is executed, it starts with a file extension of “.001”. If
a previous event log archive has been performed with the same cutoff day,
the previous archive files (which also started with extension .001) are
overwritten if they exist on the same disk and directory.

Refer to Appendix E, "Archive File Formats", for a detailed description
of the event log record format.
