Parameters
- Date/Units

This can either be a number from 1-31 representing a day-of-the month date or
one of the following key words:
MonthStart- Cycle at the beginning of the month. This is the same as a 1.
MonthEnd- Cycle at the end of the month.
Monday- Cycle on Monday.
Tuesday- Cycle on Tuesday
Wednesday- Cycle on Wednesday
Thursday- Cycle on Thursday
Friday- Cycle on Friday
Saturday- Cycle on Saturday
Sunday- Cycle on Sunday

If this parameter is missing, cycling will be turned off.
- Time
-
This can either be
ServerStart, meaning the time the server
was started or a time of the format HH:MM:SS. The seconds
are optional and valid hours are from 00 to 23.
- Period
-
This specifies how long to wait between cycles and is combined with the
Date/Units field. For instance, with a period of 2 and a Date/Units of 3,
cycling will occur every two months on the third of the month. If the
Date/Units were changed to Saturday, cycling would occur every two weeks
on a Saturday.
- MaxFiles
-
This is the maximum number of files to keep when cycling. When this number
is exceeded, old files will be deleted when new files are created while
cycling.
