By default, vulscan writes 7 logs to the ProgramData\Log folder and then begins overwriting existing logs to save disk space.  In LDMS 9.6+ this controlled by a registry key and can be modified.  For x64 clients the key is:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\landesk\managementsuite\LogOptions

For x86 the key is:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\landesk\managementsuite\LogOptions

In both cases, change the "maxbackups" value to the hex number of logs you would like to retain.  Please note, this applies to vulscan logs as well as other logs.  This can be changed manually or via script.
