dlplogs
Clients log digital asset transmissions (blocked and allowed transmissions) and send the logs to the server immediately. If the client is unable to send logs, it retries after 5 minutes.
To keep the size of logs from occupying too much space on the hard disk, manually delete logs or configure a log deletion schedule. For more information about managing logs, see Managing Logs.
