=== Prior to Cumulus 1.9.3 beta build 1053 ===
=== Prior to Cumulus 1.9.3 beta build 1053 ===
Before this release, Cumulus did not update and save this log file correctly if Cumulus restarted between midnight and 0900/1000 on 1st of month. Put simply, earlier builds started a new month on first day of each month even if the new meteorological month had not started.
 
Before to the release of build 1053,  
#If your rollover time was NOT midnight
#If you restarted Cumulus 1 on the first day of a calendar month, before your rollover time on that day
#Cumulus created a new meteorological month early, and updated the month.ini as if it had started at midnight, losing everything in the month.ini for the previous month, and corrupting the month.ini for the meteorological month that correctly starts only after rollover.
 
=== Cumulus version 1.9.4: From build 1089 to final Cumulus 1 build ===
 
On the end of month roll-over back-up folder, Cumulus stores the '''month.ini''' after it has been initialised for the new month. No copy is retained of the month.ini at the end of the month.
 
=== Cumulus MX version 3.0.0 onwards ===
 
From build 3035 onwards, MX archives the month.ini and year.ini file at the end of the month/year as monthYYYYMM.ini and yearYYYY.ini.
 
This means that although the file saved in the back up daily folder contains the month.ini for the new month or new year, the old one is preserved in the data folder with a new name.
