mlogger - MIDAS Logger

The MIDAS Logger, mlogger, is the main application that collects data from one or more frontends under certain conditions and stores them onto a physical device such as disk or tape. It also acts as a history event collector and can also store data in a mySQL database. The features and customization of the logger utility are fully described in the section Logging in MIDAS .
