Testing success/failure of archiveLogFile() method of servermanager

When attempting to archive a log file programmatically using the archiveLogFile() method of servermanager is there a way to test the success/failure of the action. I tried

adminObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("topsecret");
serverObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi._servermanager.servermanager");
result = serverObj.archiveLogFile("logfilename");
writeDump(result);

However, result is undefined.

Thanks!

That function has a void returntype, that's why.

Instead you'd have to do something like a directory read to see if the file had been renamed.
