LOGS

/var/log filling up completely, bringing system down.
Firewall getting hit hard, many access attemtps, access.log and store.log causing /var/log to fill up and shut the FW down, have to go in a delete the large logs.

Need a way to change this otherwise I can't use this in production, any ideas?

I used this script to delete log file that older than 30 days. It's works well.

/etc/cron.d/clean-log

10 0 * * * root /bin/find /var/log -name \*.gz -atime +30 -exec rm -f {} \; 2> /dev/null
15 0 * * * root /bin/find /var/log -name \DAY.* -type d -ctime +30 -exec rm -rf {} \; 2> /dev/null

This is an accumulation of logs within 1 day, there are no compressed logs found in the file system.
