Log suppression

When IBM Storage Archive EE is running, the logs files are written on each node by rsyslogd and journald of the Red Hat® Linux® system. By default, rsyslogd and journald are configured so that the logs are suppressed when the log contents reaches a certain threshold within a certain amount of time. However, for problem analysis, all logs from IBM Storage Archive EE are needed. It is highly recommended that you disable the log suppression of rsyslogd and journald. Failing to do so may result in not being able to find the root cause of any issues.
