Typically, a new logfile is created periodically, and the old logfile is renamed by appending a "1" to the name. Each time a new log file is started, the numbers in the file names of old logfiles are increased by one, so the files "rotate" through the numbers (thus the name "log rotation").
For computer log management, the Common Log Format, [1] also known as the NCSA Common log format, [2] (after NCSA HTTPd) is a standardized text file format used by web servers when generating server log files. [3]
tail has two special command line option -f and -F (follow) that allows a file to be monitored. Instead of just displaying the last few lines and exiting, tail displays the lines and then monitors the file. As new lines are added to the file by another process, tail updates the display. This is particularly useful for monitoring log files.
A log-structured filesystem is a file system in which data and metadata are written sequentially to a circular buffer, called a log.The design was first proposed in 1988 by John K. Ousterhout and Fred Douglis and first implemented in 1992 by Ousterhout and Mendel Rosenblum for the Unix-like Sprite distributed operating system.
Common Log File System (CLFS) is a general-purpose logging subsystem that is accessible to both kernel-mode as well as user-mode applications for building high-performance transaction logs. It was introduced with Windows Server 2003 R2 and included in later Windows operating systems.
Plan 9's Fossil file system is also log-structured and supports snapshots. NILFS is a log-structured file system implementation for Linux by NTT/Verio which supports snapshots. LinLogFS (formerly dtfs) and LFS are log-structured file system implementations for Linux. The latter was part of Google Summer of Code 2005. Both projects have been ...
In computational complexity theory, a log-space reduction is a reduction computable by a deterministic Turing machine using logarithmic space. Conceptually, this means it can keep a constant number of pointers into the input, along with a logarithmic number of fixed-size integers. [1] It is possible that such a machine may not have space to ...
