As the root user, you can clear the log file list to delete all the log files from the system. Clearing a log file using the Event Viewer clears the file from the system and from the view list.
To clear log files
1. Click Application Starter, Applications, System, Event Viewer.
2. Click the Clear All Log Files button.
3. In the Clear All Log Files dialog box, click Yes.
Notes
Regular users who can log in as the root user can also clear log files.
To prevent a log file from being permanently cleared from the system, you can save it. For information on saving log files, see "Saving log files."
