Configuring the CDR Service Error Log

Topic Last Modified: 2009-03-06

Monitoring Server maintains an error log that stores records that are unable to be inserted into the Call Detail Recording (CDR) database. You can use Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to configure the location of this error log, and the maximum size of each error log file. For details about changing WMI settings, see your Windows Server documentation.

Use WMI to configure the following properties of the MSFT_SIPSCDRServiceSetting class on the Monitoring Server:

  • LogFilePath. This is the folder in which error log files will be stored. The default is the Logs folder under the installation folder of Monitoring Server.
  • MaxLogFileSize. The maximum size (in KB) allowed for each error log file. If a new record causes the file to exceed this size, a new file is created in the folder specified in LogFilePath. The range is 1 to 64.
