/Project/bin/log/core – the directory that logs information regarding the Media
Gateway configuration activities and status updates. The log is produced by the
main software management module and typically represents the most valuable
log file for troubleshooting the Media Gateway problems.

/Project/bin/log/hbg – the directory that logs information regarding the Heartbeat
generator activities (heartbeats are constantly exchanged between the SC boards
and are used for the SC switchover when the active SC board fails)

/Project/bin/log/hbm – the directory that logs information regarding the
Heartbeat monitor activities (heartbeats are received by Active SC board from all
other boards in the chassis and are used for triggering SC and Media Gateway
switchover mechanisms)

/Project/bin/log/PSTNTrace - the directory that logs recorded PSTN traces for
certain calls

Project/bin/log/tpncpif - the directory that logs information regarding TPNCP
Infrastructure activities against the chassis resident boards


activities (the watchdog constantly monitors state of all of the active Media
Gateway software processes and restarts them if needed)

52.3 Log Files Storage
In the log information storage directory, ‘/Project/bin/log’ (located in both the active
and standby SC boards) log files are retained and overwritten according to specific
limitations. The oldest file (per item) is deleted automatically either upon disk space
concerns or upon reaching the maximum number of files per subject.
The file names in the directory are:

‘current’ – the current opened log file

‘@[serial number of the file]‘ – the older closed log file
The following Log file management options can be configured by AudioCodes
technical support only: (‘Project/bin/SystemParams.ini' file, ‘logger’ section):

"num_of_files" - the number of log files to keep per subject (the default is 10)

"max_file_size" – the maximum size of each file (the default is 10 MB)

"disk_full_threshold" – the disk usage threshold that causes forced cleanup of
old log files (the default is 90%)
