Hi, we currently have Exchange 2003 running on Server 2003 with a C Drive partition of 12GB. We are slowly running out of space on the C Drive. I am currently looking at ways of freeing up space on the C Drive. I have notice that we have a number of log files dating back to July 09 in the following location - C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\EXCHANGE.lo<wbr />g. These files are listed as follows - 20090717.log and so on. Is it ok to remove these log files and if so, what is the correct way to do so. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Exchange 2003 Log Files

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
