# Maximum Number of Debug Log Files

The maximum number of debug log files to store after log rotation.

If this property is `10`, the agent stores the current debug log file and up to 9 rotated log files. When logs are rotated again and a new log file is generated, the agent deletes the oldest of the stored log files and keeps the new log file.

To store no rotated logfiles, set [Agent Debug File Size](com.sun.identity.agents.config.debug.file.size.html) to zero.

Default: `0`, store all rotated log files
