You can archive the access and error log files and have the server create new
ones.
When you archive log files, the server renames the current log files and then
creates new log files with the original names. You can back up or archive, or
delete, the old log files, which are saved as the original filename followed by
the date and time the file was rotated. For example, ACCESS might become
ACCESS.24APR-04AM
You can archive log files immediately or have the server archive log files at a
specific time on specific days. This information is stored in /NOVONYX/
SUITESPOT/https-servername/LOGS.

handling a large number of requests, you might need to adjust the server
configuration or the system's network kernel to accommodate the requests.
