Diskeeper 10 User's Manual

Diskeeper Operation 51
When this option is enabled, an entry is made to the Event Log each time the Diskeeper service starts or stops.
This option is enabled by default.
Defragmentation start and stop
When this option is enabled, an entry is made to the Event Log whenever a defragmentation run starts or stops.
The Event Log entry for this option also includes information about files that cannot be moved, either because
the files are on a Diskeeper exclusion list, or the files cannot be opened. Common causes preventing a file from
being opened include access controls or permissions on the file being set to prevent Diskeeper from accessing
it. File permissions must allow SYSTEM to have full control of a file in order for Diskeeper to defragment it.
See page 66 for more information about setting access permissions.
This option is enabled by default.
Defragmented files
When this option is enabled, an entry is made to the Event Log listing each file that is defragmented by
Diskeeper. Note that enabling this option can cause the Event Log to fill rather quickly, especially if Diskeeper
defragments a high number of fragmented files. (This will be particularly likely when Diskeeper is first run on a
volume, since Diskeeper will probably be defragmenting a large number of files.)
This option is not enabled by default.
Moved files
When this option is enabled, an entry is made to the Event Log each time a file is moved for reasons other than
to defragment the file. This would include cases where files are moved in order to create more contiguous free
space. This option also notes when files could not be moved, such as files that are on a Diskeeper exclusion list
or files that cannot be opened. Common causes preventing a file from being opened include access controls or
permissions on the file being set to prevent Diskeeper from accessing it. As mentioned previously, file
permissions must allow SYSTEM to have full control of a file in order for Diskeeper to defragment it. See page
66 for more information about setting access permissions.
Here again, enabling this option can cause the Event Log to fill quickly. This option is not enabled by default.
