How could I tune the logging of ITCM.log on BIG-IP/3DNS?

I have a v4.2 PTF9 and a v4.5 PTF3 BIG-IP. One of these BIG-IP is running on 5000 model. I like to tune the verbosity level of ITCM.log as well as rotate the logging. How can this be done?   ...

We had issues with the ITCM log filling up the volume it was on. I believe F5 set the log rotation to daily in 4.5 PTF 04? Still even without DEBUG turned on, if you're frequently getting node states or availability, the log can get very big very fast. Bulk calls for getting node states and availability would help tame this.
