Delete Logs

[fiq_c]

We are planning to upgrade our Checkpoint devices to R81.10.

From R81.10 Release Notes its require free disk space for 20 GB in the root partition and 10 GB in the /var/log partition.

I found that our device don't have 10 GB free disk space in /var/log partition:

I found folder that consume 45GB in /var/log/opt/CPsuite-R77/fw1/log/:

There is a lot of old log files:

Exisiting version of the device is R80.10.

My question:

1. Is it safe to delete the log file with extension .log, logptr, logaccount_ptr and loginitial_ptr?

2. If I delete with command example: "rm 2019-08-23_002241_534.log" is it the correct way?

3. Is there negative impact to the device if I delete it?

I have been searching but not found the article (SK) about procedure to delete the files.

I'm quite new to CP world, please advice.

Thanks.
