# Dumping the Operation Logs

After you set the interval for dumping operation logs, the system will automatically dump the operation logs and traffic diversion logs from the ATIC management center to the specified directory on the ATIC management center server at specified intervals and reduce the recording times of the database and improve the ATIC management center operating efficiency.

#### Context

The dumped operation logs are saved on the ATIC management center server. You can set the dump interval for the operation logs and the number of recent days in which logs are reserved. For example, if the current operation log dump interval is 30 days, the operation logs of the latest 90 days are retained, and the dump time is 02:00:00, then the ATIC management center dumps operation logs generated 90 days ago. The dumped logs are deleted from the database. The database stores only the operation logs generated in the latest 90 days. The next dump time is 30 days after the last dump time.

In the Windows operating system, The dumped operation logs are saved to the software-installation-path/Runtime/LegoRuntime/datastorage/sysoptlog path on the ATIC management center server.

In the Linux operating system, The dumped operation logs are saved to the software-installation-path/components/atic/LegoRuntime/datastorage/sysoptlog path on the ATIC management center server.

#### Procedure

1. Choose System > Data Maintenance > Log Dump.
