    Upon our checking, we found that following log file used 392Gb space. Currently our server has limited space, that's why we have checked for unwanted files/folders on the server for deletion.

    Please let us know , is it safe to clear to /mysql/server1.log file? Please take it as a urgent matter and get back us with a solution for this. Your immediate action on matter much appreciated.

    File :
    ./mysql/server1.log: 392G

    Can anyone help me ?
