External log archival
The purge script can also archive logs older than the specified number of days to secondary storage. Use the -l option and include the path of the secondary storage to archive log files. For example:
/opt/pingidentity/abs/util/purge.sh -d 3 -l /tmp/
In the above example, log files older than 3-days are archived to the tmp directory. To automate log archival, add the script to a cron job.
