Issue/Introduction

You might notice the hard drive of your 3.6.2 TDAD Core server  filling up. This can be due to a known issue where log files at C:\..\ SETAD\DmDAta\JSM2\Logs are growing around 500MB-1500MB daily.

Cause

In normal circumstances DM component debug logs for 48 hours and then  archives those into zip files, which retain for 7 days. However DM fails to archive a particular log file, stops the routine and further continues with the archiving. 

 

Resolution

This issue is fixed in 3.6.2.5 and later versions.  Updater can be downloaded from Broadcom Support Portal.
