ABSTRACT:
A method and system for secure and reliable event data logging are disclosed. In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, event data is generated for events relating to backup, or archiving, operations. The event data is appended to the log file. However, during the operation to append the event data to the log file, the appending operation is monitored to determine whether the event logging operation is successful. If the event logging operation is unsuccessful, the event data is retained in memory until the event data can be successfully appended to the log file.
