Hello Josh, I believe dspace.log is no longer used for statistics. Usage statistics are kept in Solr and PostgreSQL. By default, log4j2.xml is configured with the INFO level. We reduced this to WARN in our environment, which brings down the log size to 300MB or less per day. Regarding retention, we usually purge the logs about every other month. Best, Andreas

Hi, We need to manage disk space for dspace log files. I have two questions: 1. dspace.log is still used for statistics on dspace 9.2? Is it OK to compress them? 2. Is there a recommendation on how long the log file should be kept? -- All messages to this mailing list should adhere to the Code of Conduct: https://lyrasis.org/code-of-conduct/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
