Controller Log Files

  • Logs generated on a PCMM or AKD PDMM are stored in flash memory at /mount/flash/log.
  • Logs generated on a PCMM2G are stored in flash memory at /home/kas/kas/log.

Files are stored in a rotating pool consisting of a maximum of 10 files.

  • The files have a maximum size of 200 kilobytes each.
  • The most amount of space the log files will consume is 2MB.
  • When a files is created after the tenth file, the earliest file is deleted to make room for the new file.

The controller-generated log levels can be controlled from the KAS IDEClosed "Integrated development environment" An integrated development environment is a type of computer software that assists computer programmers in developing software. IDEs normally consist of a source code editor, a compiler and/or interpreter, build-automation tools, and a debugger and Web Server. KAS IDE-generated log levels can be filtered in the configuration window in the Logs and Information tab.

Log File Naming Convention

The logs have this naming convention: pdmm_logs_n.

n is a value ranging from 0000000000 to 4294967295, which is the maximum value a 32-bit location can store.

Example

  • When the files are first created they are named pdmm_logs_0000000000, pdmm_logs_0000000001, pdmm_logs_0000000002, etc.
  • The file that is created after pdmm_logs_4294967295 is pdmm_logs_0000000000.
    • The naming is reset and continues.
