After you enable the log analysis feature, Cloud Firewall allocates log storage space based on the storage capacity that you specify. This topic describes how to manage log storage space in the Cloud Firewall console. You can view, increase, and clear log storage space that you purchase.
Prerequisites
The log analysis feature of Cloud Firewall is enabled. For more information, see Enable the log analysis feature.
Manage log storage capacity
If the log storage capacity is exhausted, new logs cannot be written to the dedicated Logstore and the log data is incomplete. To avoid this issue, we recommend that you monitor the usage of log storage on a regular basis.
Log on to the Cloud Firewall console.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose .
In the upper-right corner of the Logs page, view the log storage usage.
The log storage usage that is displayed is not updated in real time and is delayed for 2 hours. We recommend that you increase the log storage capacity or delete logs to release the used storage before the capacity is exhausted.
Optional. If the capacity is about to be exhausted, increase the log storage capacity or delete existing logs to release the used storage.
WarningYou cannot restore logs after the logs are deleted. Proceed with caution.
Increase the log storage capacity: In the upper-right corner of the Logs page, click Upgrade Storage. On the page that appears, specify a larger log storage capacity and complete the payment.
NoteThe fee for additional log storage capacity is USD 80 per 1,000 GB-month. The subscription duration of the log storage capacity varies based on the subscription duration of Cloud Firewall. You cannot modify the subscription duration.
Delete existing logs: In the upper-right corner of the Logs page, click Delete All Logs. In the dialog box that appears, click OK. The deletion requires approximately 1 to 2 hours to complete.
NoteAfter you enable the log analysis feature, you can clear the log storage four times. Each time you renew your subscription to Cloud Firewall, the quota to clear the log storage is reset to four times.
