How to optimise logging

Is there any possibility to size the logfile? My HDD space for logging is overflowing. It would be great to limit them by size or by the age.

Nice nickname! ;) There actually is, simply navigate to <your-prtg>/systemsetup.htm?tabid=4.
The retention for the monitoring database can be configured there. Or are we talking about PRTGs system logs located in C:\ProgramData\Paessler?

Thank you Stephan. That's exactly what I was looking for. I just didn't expect to find the log configurations in this menu
