@Marvin I am hosting prefect server in an ec2 instances but the disk got full. How can I configure the a log retention mechanism for the server?

To manage log retention for your Prefect server hosted on an EC2 instance, you can consider the following approaches: 1. Database Cleanup Scripts: Since Prefect doesn't have built-in log retention features for the server, you can manually implement a cleanup mechanism. One approach is to use tools like

pg_cron

to schedule database cleanup tasks in your Postgres database. This can help in purging old logs and keeping the database size manageable. However, be cautious to avoid deleting data that might be referenced elsewhere in the database. 2. Custom Script: You might want to create a custom script to delete logs older than a certain period. This script can be run periodically (e.g., using a cron job) to maintain your database size. Some users have implemented similar solutions by removing logs older than a week. 3. Community Insights: There have been discussions in the community about the need for such features. You can follow related GitHub issues like this one for updates or potential solutions shared by other users. For more details, you can refer to the following resources: - GitHub Issue on Database Cleanup - Community Discussion on Log Retention Implementing these strategies should help you manage disk space effectively on your EC2 instance.
