Turn Off Undo Logs

Undo logs can be quite large. If you have created a backup image of your systems before the migration, turn off the Undo Log option.

To turn off undo logs

If you are using the CA DMM user interface, follow these steps:

  1. Click Options, Logs.

    The Log Options dialog appears.

  2. Clear the Undo group check box to disable the creation of an undo file, and then click OK.

If you are using an Options file, follow these steps:

  1. Open the DMM Options Editor from the Start menu.

    DMM Options Editor opens.

  2. Choose File, Open or click the File Open toolbar button. Browse to the folder where CA DMM is installed and select the DDNAOptions.dox file.

    Note: If you have not run DesktopDNA.exe, click File, New to create the file.

  3. Expand the Logging subnode in the left pane of the DMM Options Editor.

    A list of all the Logging subnodes appears.

  4. Select the Undo Log subnode.

    The Undo Log options appear in the right pane of the DMM Options Editor.
