QuestionCA Certlog is filling up hard drive?

    I have a Windows 2008 CA Online Issue server with a 30 gig hard drive.  The drive keeps filling up with log files from the C:\windows\system32\certlog folder.  I recently had 17gig.  I basically have 2 questions.

    1.  Can I set a log file limit so the hard drive does not fill up?  If so, how do I go about doint this?
    2.  Can that folder be moved to a different drive with more space?  How would i go about doing this?

    Thanks

    I was able to extend the volume, so I guess the next question is can I set a limit on those log files so it will not fill up again.  I now have 60 gig available.

    Hi There,

    can you run the below command

    certutil -dcinfo deleteBad


    this would delete old domain controller certificate from the store.
