'backup' log files
Just in case it isn't obvious, the old logfiles that Rob mentioned don't stay around forever. Over time the system will discard older logs. Looking at the datestamps in mine, OSX keeps system.log files for about 1 week before removing them.
'backup' log files
That part of the beta debug code, I know this because I asked the same question of Adaptec. It will be there until the code goes final. It can be generated by any number of situation (I had a Zip attached with no disk inserted).
Somewhat of an issue...
Well, it's not an issue unless you have a bit of a worry about hard drive space and don't leave your Mac on overnite. My log file yesterday grew to just over 18mb in size; after the nightly maintenance run, the gzipped version is "only" 5.5mb. Still, with seven of those on the hard drive, that's 35mb. I'm not sure what the situation would be if you turn your Mac off at night; then, there's no chance for the system to compress the log file. |
