Check Point recommends configuring Disk Space Management parameters to delete old log entries when available disk space is less than or equal to?

In the context of managing disk space for logging purposes, Check Point emphasizes the importance of maintaining sufficient available disk space to ensure that logging functions smoothly without interruptions or performance degradation.

When it comes to the threshold for deleting old log entries, setting this threshold at 15% is strategic because it allows for a significant buffer of free disk space. By doing so, the system can continue to log new events without facing the risk of running out of space, which could lead to data loss or system errors. Keeping the available disk space above 15% minimizes the likelihood of sudden log data discontinuation or the inability to log critical security events.

Establishing a 15% threshold for automatic log deletion helps balance retaining valuable forensic data against the need to preserve disk space for ongoing operations, making it a recommended best practice in maintaining log management within Check Point environments. This ensures that administrators have ample data to review while still ensuring that log management remains functional.
