Capacity and storage sizes of Logmanager

Logmanager uses a representation based on the sum of the disk capacities as specified by the manufacturers, who use decimal prefixes (1 KB = 1000 B). Logmanager internally uses a system representation called binary prefixes (1 KiB = 1024 B).

Generally the total storage capacity is divided into several logical partitions, with one representing the system storage for Logmanager software, while another partition is used to store events/logs. The system partition uses about 21GB.

Logmanager data retention

Logmanager will start overwriting logs/events from oldest to newest when the storage is full. The overwriting only occurs when the storage is full and only “from behind”.
