Symantec Scan Engine creates a new log file for each day. You can specify the number of log files that Symantec Scan Engine retains to keep the log directory

at a manageable size. Thus, when the maximum number of log files is reached, the oldest log file is removed on a daily basis. In its default configuration, this

setting is disabled (0). That means that no log files are deleted.If needed, you can periodically export the data to another file to retain the log

data before it is removed.
