Avoid a high log message queue size. A high number of log messages can slow down the user interface considerably. This is because the GeoDrive user interface loads messages from its logs at the start and during other events where it determines its message log needs updating.
As a best practice, the following are suggested:
If logging upload, restore and stub events is desired, the recommended configuration method is to double-click the drive entry, click the Logging tab, and enable logging. Verify that "GeoDrive Operations" to log uploads, restores and stubs is enabled. This allows for more efficient high-volume logging and allows flexibility in determining how much disk space to devote to logging.
Using the settings above provides administrators with the latest 10,000 SEVERE/WARNING/INFO messages in the UI. At times it is desired to look back further, the Event Viewer will contain only SEVERE and WARNING messages. These recommendations are shown in Figure 22.
