It uses a schedule for the backups and is not based on logfile size.<br />
<br />
I would prefer this option to ensure that you keep the files with a defined criteria and date range for easier access and troubleshooting.<br />
<br />
The issue is that is your logs are full and there is no space then you'd have problems with the server.<br />
<br />
The other issue is that the bigger the log files the longer it will take you to work through them when you have to find something from the archived data.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
