After you enable log analysis, Cloud Firewall allocates log storage space based on the capacity you specify. You can view, increase, and clear this storage space in the Cloud Firewall console.
Prerequisites
The log analysis feature is enabled. Enable the log analysis feature.
Expand storage capacity
Monitor your log storage usage regularly to prevent collection from stopping when capacity is full.
-
View storage usage: In the upper-right corner of the Log Analysis page, view the storage usage.
Storage usage on this page has a two-hour delay. When storage is nearly full, expand capacity or purge logs proactively.
-
Storage capacity expansion: In the upper-right corner of the Log Analysis page, click Adjust Capacity. Select a larger capacity and pay the expansion fee. If you use the Dual-Region Delivery mode, manually allocate the expanded capacity to each delivery region.
-
Purge existing logs: In the upper-right corner of the Log Analysis page, click Delete All Logs. Click OK in the dialog box. Purging takes 1 to 2 hours.
Warning-
Purged logs cannot be recovered. Use this feature with caution.
-
You have four purge opportunities after enabling the log service. Opportunities reset to four upon each Cloud Firewall renewal.
