The primary and secondary log file are created during feature initialization. The primary log file saves
10000 alarms. When the threshold of 10000 alarms in the primary log file is crossed, the subsequent
10000 alarms are saved in the secondary log file. After crossing the threshold of 10000 alarms in the
secondary log file, the content of primary log file is cleared and is replaced with the subsequent alarms.
