Accounting log files are created in the \act-collect directory on the compact flash device. The naming convention for accounting logs is:
actaaff-timestamp.xml.gz
where:
aa is the accounting policy ID
ff is the log file destination ID
timestamp is the timestamp when the file is created, in the same form as for event logs.
Accounting logs are .xml files that are created in a compressed format and have a .gz extension.
The \act-collect directory is where active accounting logs are written. When an accounting log is rolled over, the active file is closed and archived in the \act directory before a new active accounting log file is created in \act-collect.
