request system storage cleanup

Free storage space on the router by rotating log files and proposing a list of files for deletion. User input is required for file deletion.

Options

dry-run — (Optional) List files proposed for deletion (without deleting them).

Additional Information

If logging is configured and being used, the dry-run option will rotate the log files. In that case, the output displays the message “Currently rotating log files, please wait.” If no logging is currently underway, the output displays only a list of files to delete.
