Log entry format

The log entry format is as follows:

date_and_time action_taken base_path_length:stream_name_length  path_name

date_and_time is the mtime or ctime value from the primary storage system, not the secondary storage system.

Note: The mtime value is used to create file and directory types, delete file and directory types, and modify file types because these entry types modify data. The ctime value is used to rename file and directory types and modify attribute types because these types modify the container for the data, not the data itself.

action_taken is one of the types of log entries.

base_path_length:stream_name_length is the length of the base path followed by a colon and the stream name in single byte characters. Only the base path length is shown if the file is not a stream file.

path_name is the file path relative to the base of the tree that is mirrored, not the absolute path name. The relative path name is the same on the primary and secondary storage system.
