[cobalt-users] site log rotation on RAQ4



I just did an OS restore on a RAQ4 and something strange is happening.  The site logs seem to be rotating out about every day, even though they are not that big.  I have only one site that I am concerned about.  Right now it has a zipped log from yesterday with only yesterday's stats, and an empty log for today.  The latter log will proably get written to over night when the split log runs. (Yesterday, both logs had data, though the zipped log only when back a few days rather than back to when the restore was done two weeks ago)
 
It used to be that logs would stay in place in each site for a long time.  Once they reached a certain size they would get zipped and a new web.log would start.  Depending on size, you could have several months of statistics available between the two files.  Even with very big log files, there was still usually a fairly good amount of access data available at a given time.  I therefore never concerned myself with the specifics of when log files got rotated.  I knew it was based on size, but I never concerned myself with the details.
 
What can I do to stop this fast rotation from occurring and keep log file data longer.  Also, is there any way to get back last week's data which apparently is lost at the site level?
 
Thanks.
