What is the method for clearing log files in Linux?

You can use the following command to clear the log:

  1. Empty a log file using the truncate command: truncate -s 0 /path/to/logfile.
  2. Redirect an empty string to a log file using the echo command: echo “” > /path/to/logfile.
  3. Redirect an empty string to a log file using the cat command: cat /dev/null > /path/to/logfile.
  4. Redirect an empty string to a log file using the “>” symbol: > /path/to/logfile.

Please note that clearing the log files may result in the loss of existing log records, so please make sure to back up or no longer need these logs before clearing them.
