Hi,

In a test installation, I noticed that if I add /var/ossec directory in the list of directories that syscheck should monitor, disk usage speeds
up really fast. In less than 2 hours, disk usage on on a test system
doubled.

What's the best practice for monitoring /var/ossec? I want to keep an
eye on what's going on inside that directory, but not use up that much
disk space.

In general, what's the recommended method of monitoring a log directory?

This is what I do. Adjust accordingly:

<directories check_all="yes" realtime="yes"
report_changes="yes">/data/ossec</directories>

<ignore>/data/ossec/queue</ignore>
<ignore>/data/ossec/logs</ignore>
<ignore>/data/ossec/stats</ignore>
<ignore>/data/ossec/var</ignore>


Thank you,
