Re: [Scribeserver-users] Scribe namespace

After writing to category_99999, scribe will write to category_100000.  You can test this out yourself by creating a file named category_99999 and then logging until it rotates to a new file.  The file numbers go as high as INT_MAX.

Also, I recommend setting a File Store's rotate_period to "daily" so that every day the file number will reset with a new date.  And you can configure the File Store's max_size to determine how often Scribe will write to a new file.  By setting either of these configuration options, it should be easier to manage your log files.

Scribe outputs files of the form "category/category_XXXXX."  What happens when "XXXXX" is "99999"?

Thanks.
