    Hello Hudson,

    The only way to do this with the retention you need would be to check "Off" in WHM > Tweak Settings for this option:

    Delete each domain’s access logs after stats run

    After that, you'd then have to back up the domlogs every 3 months and then clear the existing ones (don't remove the files, simply clear them).

    The act of backing them up and clearing them could be done using a cron or a script.

    Thanks!

    Hello Hudson,

    There is no option in cPanel or WHM frontend or backend to perform this task. You'll have to write something to do it.

    I don't have an example script. If you want to save them for 3 months, you'd need to copy them to a backup. If you start writing the script and need help with it after going through that effort, please let us know.

    Thanks!
