If you run the server through its cli, logfiles are named using a sequence number, which is a count of sims run since the server started. So every time you start the server, the index starts at zero, and the new logfiles are written over the old ones. This is somewhat convenient for debugging, since you don't have to remember to clean up logfiles, but it's not good for running experiments.
