SUMMARY
Directory Service Manager for NetWare (DSMN) periodically creates
Jet<n>.log files. These files are used for recovery if the service is
stopped abruptly or in an unusual way. If this happens, and the service is
restarted, the log files are automatically used to re-create the correct
state of the account synchronization database.
However, over time, these files may accumulate in the
%Systemroot%\System32\Syncagnt directory. This article explains how to
remove these files.
MORE INFORMATION
The log files are processed and deleted whenever a full backup of the
account synchronization database occurs. Therefore, if many Jet<n>.log
files have accumulated in the %Systemroot%\System32\Syncagnt directory, you
should schedule daily backups to clear these logs.
You can also delete these log files manually, as long as the DSMN service
is not stopped incorrectly before the next full backup of the database.
