Sendlog is a command line application which will automatically send the most recent log files and others to a special FTP folder available to all Development and Tech Support. It is designed by default to send the files which Development or Tech Support would need my just double-clicking the application with no user input. This makes it convenient for Tech Support to instruct a customer to run the application themselves. It is however discouraged to train techs to run it as it could easily fill up our FTP storage with files that we don’t want or need.
When run, the application compresses all the log files and other files requested into a single zip file named using the machines license and the current date and time, example 10000-201103161554.zip.

Logs are created in the \tracelogs folder and then based on configuration located in System Configuration | Site | Events…
The default retention is 10 days. Systems which are functioning properly can be set to as little as 1 day. Many sites prefer setting the retention to 3 which provides logs for any events which may have occurred over the weekend.
This is controlled via the Windows Task Scheduler. The task name for this is DV2000 logarchive.
For example if Archive older log files is set to 3. There should be 4 ltt files and 5 zip files. The reason for the quantity difference is when the task is performed and when the file was actually created.
