If configured for mirroring, Scout creates a log file for each mirroring session and stores it in the mirror directory under the [Scout Server] files. For further information, see Configuring mirroring .

You can have these log files deleted automatically via a command.

In the Scout Console, click View > System diagnostics > Mirror log cleanup.

The Command dialog opens with the command Mirror log cleanup.
To select the period relative to the current date, under Delete log files older than, enter the number of days before which you want to delete log files.
Specify the point in time of the execution. To define periodic scheduling of the cleanup process, select Every. Then, specify a day of the month or a weekday and then the time.
Confirm with Schedule.

Periodic scheduling of the command ensures that mirror log files have only a limited lifetime. Example: If you define 90 days and Friday, the log files will remain available for a maximum of one week longer than 90 days.

Note:

Other log data such as administrator activities, executed commands, or alarms in the Scout Console can be deleted via database cleanup. For further information, see Database cleanup.
