SCOM - Non Windows Logs

Question

Hi All,

I am using SCOM 2016 which is configured to monitor non-windows machines. The number of SCOM logs stored under opt/microsoft/scx/ is increasing a lot

So i reduced it to intermittent using the below command

cd /opt/microsoft/scx/bin/tools/
./scxadmin –log-set all intermediate

But still it keep increasing a lot. Is there a way to disable or control this log collection. Please advice

As per MS documentation, you can enable logrotate : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/manage-monitoring-unix-linux?view=sc-om-2019#manage-unix-and-linux-log-files
