After searching a bit, all I got is journalctl --vacuum-time.... However, this command doesn't delete service logs. So, how can I safely delete logs of a specific service from linux?

Use logrotate . You can edit configuration file and customize which log will be deleted and how frequently.

See man page for full options list: http://www.skrenta.com/rt/man/logrotate.8.html

  • Thanks for replying, it seems this command can only work with non binary logs. Is there any way to rotate journald binary logs?
