General Notes

It is highly recommended that Identity Server and Agent administrators delete all the debug files that get created when running the product in debug mode immediately after its usage. In debug mode, all activities performed by the Identity Server and agents are dumped into the debug files for fault detection and may contain sensitive data. Consequently, debug files take a lot of space on disk which may hamper optimal system performance.
