Hi Neha, I was able to figure this out, this is happening due to time based rolling.
But now problem, when I fetch the messages for particular topic, server is reading only one log file, returns those messages only. Is there any way I can combine all log files which are already produced into one, so that I can get all messages posted in that topic.

This will tell us why the log is getting rolled over.
