ViewX Log file abnormal behavior (log files continuously being deleted and created for ACTIVE sessions)

We are experiencing unusual behavior with the ViewX log files on a Windows Server Terminal Server running MULTIPLE ViewX client sessions (one ViewX instance per RDP client session).  The log files in folder \programdata\schneider electric\clearscada\logs\viewx are continuously being deleted and created for ACTIVE sessions as fast as windows explorer can refresh the contents.  This seems to occur when the number of ViewX instances on the terminal server exceeds 15, though this is not a hard number.

 

Deployment details:

DB Server:

VMWare Virtual Machine

Windows Server 2019 Datacenter (1809)

8 virtual processors (typical load 30-40%)

64GB RAM

452GB out of 1.6TB Disk Available

GeoSCADA version: 2022 (Build 85.8469) March 2023 Update

 

Client TS Server:

VMWare Virtual Machine

Windows Server 2019 Datacenter (1809)

GeoSCADA version: 2022 (Build 85.8469) March 2023 Update
