Hi,

Greetings. I have a requirement to delete Pega logs older than 7 days. We are on Pega 7.3.1, i have written a cron job which deletes them but wanted to know if there is a Pega way of doing this?

Regards,

Bharat

Hi,

 

You can use prlog4j2.xml(should be present in your service directory) to provide the log rolling instruction.

For time based roll off use TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy tag. Default value is one day.

For details please refer:

Thanks

Thanks Saikat, if i specify the interval as 7, will it delete all the logs older than 7? I wanted them to be deleted rather than rolled over.

Bharat
