Growing logfile in /opt/VRTSpbx/log

I am getting these messages in my logfile in /opt/VRTSpbx/log of the master server.  It is filling up my /opt file system:

    Omar's instructions are right EXCEPT that PBX doesn't fall under the NetBackup product ID, so "-p NB" won't help you.  It would be "-p 50936" instead of "-p 5121somethingorother" --

     

    You know what, it's easier to send you to the TechNote.  ;-)

     

    DOCUMENTATION: How to change the logging level and other unified log settings for the Veritas Private Branch Exchange process

    Turn it down to zero.

     

    I don't know if you have to stop/restart PBX after making that change or not.  If you're not running any backups it wouldn't hurt.

    configure your logs to be less verbose, you can use this:

     

    See log files of an Originator ID

    vxlogmgr -s -o <OID>
    List all unified log files
    vxlogmgr -s -o <orginator>
    Delete log files
    vxlogmgr -d -o <originator> -a
    List Settings
    vxlogcfg -l -o <originator> -p NB

    That was it.  My logging level was at 10.  It doesn't seem to allow a logging level of 0, so I set it to 1. 

     

    Another question:  Is there any way to clean up the logfile?  It is ~1.9GB.  If not, I will zero it out with "> logfile". 

     

    Thank you very much for your quick response!

    After you stop PBX, you should be able to delete the log file without any trouble.  (You could probably delete it while PBX was running, but for peace of mind I'd stop it first.)
