When you restore it you'd have to use the Additive clause every time in order to make it work properly. If you dont then anything that had been written to the logs before you switched it off will be lost. Additive basically means that the current content of the log file is not to be destroyed, which will always be what you want if you are trying to set things back the way that they were.
