I knocked up a script for one of our DOORS servers the other day which
deleted any logs which were older than n days..... I can look it out if
you like.....
 
It could be modified to delete / move / etc the files.  Even zip them up
:-)

Subject: automatic delete log files


We have a few custom dev'd products we host that generate tons of log
files. They cannot be turned off. (please don't ask why :) ) so after a
few weeks or so, the C: drive fills up. 

I am curious what creative solutions people have done out there to deal
with similar issues like this? There is the obvious choice of running
some process/batch that deletes them on a schedule using task manager.
anything else?
