We’ve been using the attached ksh (we’re on AIX 7.2) script to remove process logs older than 30 days for a while now. It doesn’t use any TCL scripts. We call the command from a cron job and write that output to a file in the hci user’s home directory. I use a similar script to clean up monitor daemon logs older than 30 days as well.
We have Log History set to keep up to 150 files and the folder size up to 1 GB. We also have the process configuration set to cycle logs after they reach 10 MB.
I’ve attached the script because I can’t figure out how to format the text so that it doesn’t look worse than it does in the script. It’s over-commented, but I forget how some commands work and like to have somewhere to remind myself.
I’ve commented out the rm command (which will delete files it’s presented) and the echo command just below it will return a list of the files that would be deleted.
Be careful with this if you aren’t sure what it is doing.
EDIT: Well, it wouldn’t let me upload the file – I assume because it has no extension. So, here’s the ugly pasted code:

hcigvt
This command is used to access the global variables.hcigvt {add|del|get|set|show} [varname] [varvalue] [isencrypted]
add – adds the global variable to the variable table.
del – deletes the global variable name from the variable table.
get – prints the global variable value of varname.
set – sets the global variable value of varname to a new value.
show – shows all the variable names and values in local site.
varname is the global variable name.
varvalue is the global variable value.
isencrypted determines if the global variable must be encrypted in the ini file.
1 indicates it is encrypted.
0 indicates it is not encrypted. This is the default.
For example:C:\cloverleaf\cis6.3\integrator\bin>hcigvt show
