ReadyCLOUD log file is 23 GB

Most of the log files on my Mac are ~250 MB. However, one that was last modifed 6 month ago is 23 GB! I'm guessing that isn't normal? How may I clear it or truncate it? Simply deleting it is fine?

 

It's at this location:

~/Library/Application Support/ReadyCLOUD/

 

with this filename:

username@ExternalDrive.bb30126.log

 

The corresponding .db  file is 463 MB.

Thanks, FramerV.

 

After posting I rememberd I had once "tricking" ReadyCLOUD into backing up my 3 TB external drive by pointing it to a symbolic for that drive link on my internal startup disk. I think that's what casued the odd log file size.

Hi k4heines,

 

If its just logs, I think deleting is fine. But it might be best to get in touch with MAC support, verify what may have caused a modification that large. I am not even sure of its importance so best to have someone that knows it take a look before deleting it.
