    The clean_pds_logs.sh backs up the active PDS log file to a compressed file, adding a time stamp to the file name (for example, pds_server.log.24Mar09.gz) and creates an empty pds_server.log file in the source directory ($LOGDIR). Ex Libris Support recommends that you run the script once a month.
    This script is located under the following directory (be_bin), where <r> is the Primo version in which Primo was first installed and <x> is the Primo instance:
    /exlibris/primo/p<r>_<x>/ng/primo/home/system/publish/bin
    To execute the delete PDS log script:
    1. Log on to the server as the primo user.
    2. Enter the following command to move to the directory that contains the log script:
      be_bin
    3. Enter the following command to run the script:
      ./clean_pds_logs.sh
