This is done by pruning the older files until the size of the Log Files directory is 80% of the maximum size established for the log files directory (by default, 80% of 100 MB, which is 80MB).

Older log files are copied to the following directory:

The log files stored in the Old Log Files directory have a starting timestamp and ending timestamp as a part of the filename.
