Hi
Is there a setting limiting log retention?
If not, is there an automated function for purging log files?
Thanks

Hi there, yes, as far as i know you can tell SE server to switch your logs every a specific period of time, such as, 1 day, 3 day.. etc
Good luck (:

thank you for your help.
however, I'm looking to purge old logs, and I have not found a reference to any setting or function to do that.

thank you for your help, not the place I would have looked, it's rather a roundabout way.
I wish there was a way to specify number of log generations, or lifespan, or a manual pruning function.

Re: purging logs
Did you read 'Minimum Disk Space Settings Values' section?

I did, and this does not really apply, it's not a dedicated server, and I'm not concerned with filling up a disk.
It's just that I see no need for logs going back years, or a drive with a huge allocations table.
This is not all that significant, and, I'll be purging manually.
Thanks, David L.
