Default Re: Log file size

You could slap another driver in which has a larger disk space of 5gb..then edit the registry to save the logs to the other drive. (checkpoint knowledge base can help with this)

Then I would look to move the lot off to a bigger better system.

Short fix until you get a new system setup.

How to: (As i know you will ask)
Checkpoint Solution


To redirect log files to another drive or path:

Windows NT/2000

1. Add to registry a new string value of FWLOGDIR under one of the following registry locations:

FireWall-1 4.1:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CheckPoint\FW1\4.1


FireWall-1 NG and NGX:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CheckPoint\FW1\5.0


2. Create a new directory (for example C:\MyLogs) and define a String value named FWLOGDIR containing the log path (C:\MyLogs) under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CheckPoint\FW1\5.0

Note: The target path directory must exist prior to modifying the registry. In NGX, you should enter "6.0" in the path mentioned, instead of "5.0".


3. Reboot server.
