Deleting Logs

[andrewjames (Andrew)]

We currently have an issue where we keep running out of disc space, especially when we increase the robot logging to Verbose for debugging purposes due to the log files filling up the disc. Currently our logs are deleted every 14 days, however it would be useful if either:

1. We could set a quota for logs, and the oldest logs are deleted when the logs are over x GB in size.
2. We could delete logs directly from Orchestrator.

Are either of these possible?
Thanks.

Maintenance Considerations

@andrewjames
You can use SQL Server Agent to run a job nightly that will delete old logs. You could set it to look for Verbose/Trace logs in particular if that’s the bulk of your old data.

@Palaniyappan There is nothing in there that answers my question - if I’ve missed something, please let me know.

@DanielMitchell Thank you -that may help. I’ll speak to our DB guys, and see if they can delete the Verbose logs on a more frequent basis.

Fine
