Log Size Fortinet 600C

[Steven_Lengua]

Anyone know how to find out the Log size in the Log & Report section? I have a 600C and the question that was asked was how much can the Log file hold? To be honest I wasn't sure. Is there an easy way to find that out?

Default log file size is 100M

Check it with CLI:show full log disk setting

  set max-log-file-size 100

Totally log size , you may check it with CLI:

dia sys  logdisk usage   Total HD usage: 6328MB/29540MB Total HD logging space: 8862MB   -----the size of all log HD logging space usage for vdom "root": 4845MB/8862MB

Awesome! Thanks so much!

So we can increase it here as well with the same command? So if I wanted to use 200MB I could do set max-log-file-size 200?

It is not recommended to increase "max-log-file-size" to 200M.

In default setting, it will log lots of 100M log file until  it reach "Total HD logging space: 8862MB"

Can check it with CLI:execute log  list  xx

You may change quota for disk log with CLI:

config log disk setting     set status enable     set log-quota 2000 end Check it with CLI: dia sys logdisk  quota

It will only use 2000M disk for log, not "8862MB".

Thanks
