    I do not believe so, no. You could do it from the command line though. Here's one way to do it:

    /etc/init.d/syslog-ng stop    
rm -f /var/log/ltm
/etc/init.d/syslog-ng start

      it was probably a better idea to ask a new question, then jump on this.

       

      do a ls -al /var/log/

       

      probably quickest to delete some of the older logs, i.e .5.gz, .6.gz

       

      and then look into why that section got full
