Question

LogGrabber looks zipping just very recent logs. How can we capture more logs?

Answer

Please check ageInDays attributes in .xml configuration files.

To limit the size of generated LogGrabber zip files, by default LogGrabber should be capturing logs for a few days.

<SiteScope>\tools\LogGrabberSiteScope\default.loggrabber.conf.xml
   ...
    <server name="Logs" logPath="logs" includeSub="true" isSiteScopeRelative="true" ageInDays="3">
         <logFiles>

We can use full.loggrabber.conf.xml to collect more logs.

<SiteScope>\tools\LogGrabberSiteScope\full.loggrabber.conf.xml
   ...
    <server name="Logs" logPath="logs" includeSub="true" isSiteScopeRelative="true" ageInDays="14">
         <logFiles>

Or we can use Configuration Tool > Export configuration > [v] Include log files method as well.
