verbose, Log file is removed upon success setting is not removing logs

I have logging set to Verbose, Log file is removed on success set on one of our servers where we are testing different scenarios.  The backups are succeeding, that jobs are completing but the logs aren't being removed.

 

Has anyone else run into this?  we are running 8.5.0.625.

 

Thanks

    Hello Cory,

    No, that is a VDI thread closing. In an advance engine log look for the below line for a successful job.This line is located at the bottom of the log..

    EXAMPLE:

    13:36:27.193 Main main } = 0

    Zero here means Success. A one means failed.

    In a "normal" engine log (logging=2 has been selected in your job) look for a message\error section again at the bottom of the log.

    EXAMPLE:
    <MESSAGES>

    <ERROR error="11806" showInUI="true">Backup of database "model" failed.
    LiteSpeed for SQL Server can not append to a backup file in use with the LiteSpeed Engine.

    </ERROR>

    <INFO>CPU Seconds: 0.14</INFO>

    <INFO>Environment: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz</INFO>

    <INFO>CPUs: 8 logical, 4 cores, 4 physical packages.</INFO>

    </MESSAGES>

    A message\error section ONLY exist if the job recorded an error. If there is no message\error section as seen above then the job completed without error.

    Also note these are engine logs which will not be deleted by a "remove on success" configured in a maintenance plan reporting option.

    Hope this helps,
