Safest way to recover log file space

Recommendation

________________________________________________________________________

The safest way to recover log file space is generally to truncate it, not remove it. From a Bourne or Korn shell, this can easily be accomplished with just ">/path/to/file" (i.e. just a redirect without any other command).
