    Stop the services which fill those log files

    Or write a cron job to empty those files

    Sounds like someone left debug level logging on a very noisy service by mistake.

    Also, that server needs more disk, that's a tiny amount of space remaining after you're clearing logs.

    I recommend `ncdu /`, then you can see what directories take the most space. After that you could use `lsof` to see what programs write to those directories

    Redirect all output to /dev/null.

    Wait till someone cries.

    Give them reason to cry by telling them they won the task to decrappify their logging.
