Hi Henry
For DPM the logs you need to keep are:
/var/log/{dpns,rfio,dpm,srmv1,srmv2}/log
By default DPM configures these as 15 weeks, compressed, so 105 days
- which exceeds the 90 day log keeping requirement.
Ah, and I've noticed a bug in /etc/logrotate.d/rfiod. The line "/var/
log/rfio" should be "/var/log/rfio/log". (This causes your log to
build ad infinitum, which is not good).
There's also some gridftp logging into /var/log/messages, and you
should reconfigure this to log for 15 week (preferably compressed).
Now, I was sure that I'd put this in the wiki, but I couldn't find
it. So I put it into the wiki...

BTW, I've never heard a requirement to keep storage logs for longer
than 90 days..
Cheers
Graeme
