collectmultiplelog.sh

mvAndZipNewLog_AEP.sh

mvAndZipNewLog_POM.sh

mvZippedLogsToBackup.sh

log rotation

Help scripts used for debugging.

These four scripts are used to avoid flooding the MPPHOME/logs/*/ folders with backup log files such as global.log.1, global log.2.

These scripts are also used to keep logs for a longer time period. Sometimes when there is high call traffic, the current logs are overwritten frequently and it is difficult to find out when the issue or bug actually takes place. The scripts collect all the mpp backup logs and puts them into external storage such as the mounted external disc.

  • collectmultiplelog.sh, mvAndZipNewLog_AEP.sh, mvAndZipNewLog_POM.sh: Detects the presence of logs in the logs directory, moves them to the zipped logs directory, and zips the logs.

  • mvZippedLogsToBackup.sh: Moves the zipped log files from the zipped logs directory to the remote directory.

For more information on usage of these scripts, refer to the README file.
