Backup Exec log files 38GB
We've had an issue with our server due to lack of free space. We've examined the contents of the drive and "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\" is taking up 38GB of space. Can you tell me ...

It seems that the debugging is left ON from the registry which means it continuously is keeping all the activities logged. To stop the debugging perform the following:
1) Goto Registry Editor
2) Browse HKLM | Software | Symantec | Backup Exec for Windows | Backup Exec | Engine | Logging
3) Here you will see Dword named as "CreateDebugLog"
4) Change the value of this Dword to ' 0 '
5) Close the Registry Editor
Now go to "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\" and delete all the files which are in format "servername-beremotexx.log" and "servername-benginexx.log"
Also there is no setting where you can set the cap for logging space to any value.
Thanks,
