If you use logrot.pl, you will have to configure it by first using logrot.pl -c. Once the log files are known to logrot, then simply running logrot.pl without any arguments will zero out all of the log files in its config.
You should just use logrot.pl. It was shipped with RME 3.5 starting in IDU 6.0. If you just want to quickly zero out a file, you can also run NMSROOT/bin/logrot_trunc on the file. You don't even need to restart dmgtd for most log files.
So I can just run logrot.pl with no arguments and the perl script will zero out the log files without making a backup. Correct? That's exactly what I want to do.
