Matthew -

Get the specifics ... the file name, and latest timestamp (for context).
What they're looking at may be a dsmerror.log file, which can be large
as it accumulates endlessly over time - ignored until it gets huge.
If some other log, its timestamp will provide evidence as to what is
writing to it, in terms of scheduled or invoked events.
