Hi. My / filesystem is full and I'm looking for log files that I can remove to free up space. The file /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/event_handler.log file for today is 29GB. What is the effect of removing it?

Thanks!

This is completely safe to remove.

In newer versions we are going to truncate this file much quicker.
