Log Maintenance and Freeing up Storage

[chrism]

Hi Guys,

Any recommendations for log maintenance? I have 2.5 GB of log files under /var/log/astguiclient and it seems to be filling up our storage pretty quickly. Do we need all of these logs for anything? Any recommendations for regular maintenance to clean up things? How can I prevent my drives from becoming full before its too late?

Thanks,

Chris

By the way, I know about disabling logging within vicidial/admin.php. I was curious if there is any maintenance, log cycling or anything else that you might recommend for regular maintenance on a VICIDIAL server.

Thanks again!

### remove old vicidial logs and asterisk logs more than 2 days old
28 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/log/astguiclient -maxdepth 1 -type f -mtime +2 -print | xargs rm -f
29 0 * * * /usr/bin/find /var/log/asterisk -maxdepth 3 -type f -mtime +2 -print | xargs rm -f
