Hi William,

Graylog is indexing all log messages into Elasticsearch 
<https://www.elastic.co/products/elasticsearch>. What you have found is the 
local disk journal of Graylog, in which it will write all received log 
messages before they are indexed into Elasticsearch (for data integrity 
reasons, e. g. when the Elasticsearch cluster is down).

In other words, there simply is no such thing as a simple text file you 
could back-up.

This being said, Graylog Enterprise offers an archive plugin with which you 
can create backups of your log messages for long-term 
storage/backup: https://www.graylog.org/enterprise

Cheers,
Jochen
