SDL logs for. Sophos Intercept-x for server occupying massive disk space

Alok Gupta

Hi

I am using SOPHOS Intercept-x for server with server lockdown feature and noticing that SOPHOS SDL log files keep on increasing and storing more than a year logs. Resulting no space left on the disk.

Pls suggest workaround to remove these logs and to limit the log upto a month only.

Thanks,

    Thanks. Please stay in touch with us. The client should be able to clean up old logs automatically.

    Hi Kushal 

    Thanks for your reply!

    I am trying to delete the logs manually but it taking huge time. Beside this, I can't delete all the logs as the server gets hanged, so I have to select small bunch of files to delete  which is taking long time and number of files in the log folder is approx 20lacs.

    I received an update from our team. We do have plans to address this issue in a release later this year, however, we do not have a definitive time frame as to when you can expect the fix to be pushed out.

    Manually clearing the files may be the best option in the meantime.

    Why do I need to unlock the server to delete the SLD log files?

    -> Tamper protection disabled

    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\SLD\logs>cacls log_202204201528390678.xml
    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\SLD\logs\log_202204201528390678.xml NT-AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(ID)F
                                                              BUILTIN\Administrators:(ID)F


    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\SLD\logs>del log_202204201528390678.xml
    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\SLD\logs\log_202204201528390678.xml
    Access denied

    ->unlocked the server from SLD here


    C:\ProgramData\Sophos\SLD\logs>del log_202204201528390678.xml
