Log level and size settings

Setting	Description
Log Level	FATAL—Logs fatal operations. ERROR—Logs errors and fatal operations. WARN—Logs warnings, errors and fatal operations. INFO—Logs summary information. DEBUG—Logs more extensive details. TRACE—Logs all possible details. The level of detail is cumulative—each level includes the details of the previous levels. For example, ERROR includes all ERROR and FATAL details. The TRACE level includes all possible information. The INFO level is recommended.
Maximum Log Size (GB)	This setting specifies the maximum size of the log. When the file reaches half capacity, it’s saved as a log file and a backup file and overwrites any existing backup file. At any time, the total size of these 2 files won’t exceed the total maximum log size specified.

You're done here.
