Use the following commands to clean up Aaa or ConfigAgent log files: switch(config)# bash sudo truncate -s 0 /var/log/agents/Aaa* switch(config)# bash sudo truncate -s 0 /var/log/agents/ConfigAgent*   Then use the following commands to clean up previously rotated old log files: switch(config)# bash sudo find /var/log/agents -name 'Aaa*.gz' -type f -delete switch(config)# bash sudo find /var/log/agents -name 'ConfigAgent*.gz' -type f -delete
