Hi CheckMates,

Sorry for simple question, searched but found no reference nor DOC about it

I have a gateway with /var/log/ with less than 5% free space

I can see log files like this one:

[Expert@xxx:0]# ls -lh /var/log/opt/CPsuite-R82/fw1/log/Worker1/Worker1_2026-03-03_000000*
-rw-rw---- 1 admin root 9.1K Mar 3 00:00 /var/log/opt/CPsuite-R82/fw1/log/Worker1/Worker1_2026-03-03_000000.adtlog

Analyzing file structure in Worker1 directory, seems fw.log was moved. If this is confirmed, probably this gateway loss connection to the Manager at some point and now its safe to delete those files, isnt it?

many thanks in advance,

Leon

You can delete those files. The /var/log/opt/CPsuite-R82/fw1/log/worker1.elg will show when and with what log server the firewall had issues, it will show something like: 

[Worker1 21231]@cp-[20 Sep 23:21:04] 23:21:04: srv_disconnected: change <IP> status to Status ERROR description: Log-Server Disconnected
