Exchange 2013 IIS and Logfiles Best practices

Hi forum,

In my Exchange 2013 environment I am monitoring the log files and noticing a growth.

The ExchangeInstallPath=D:\Program Files\Exchange\ (Normally \Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15)

Disk Volume sizes: C: = 80GB total and D: = 50GB total

Current logging, Transport Roles and bin usage:

C:\InetPub\Logs\LogFiles\W3SVC2        10.1 GB

C:\Windows\System32\WinEvt                   04.3 GB

$ExchangeInstallPath\Logging                  18.2 GB

$ExchangeInstallPath\TransportRoles           10.1 GB

$ExchangeInstallPath\Bin\Search\Ceres\Diag..  05.3 GB

I am using the Exchange Server 2013 Cleanup Script which seems to work from our RES Automation Management server.

What concerns me is our policy which states:

All IIS logs are disabled on all web servers and will only be enabled to troubleshoot incidents.

What is Microsoft’s best practices for IIS and the other log directories?

My understanding is IIS can be disabled but the others are used by exchange health and Managed Availability.

There is also a PS script to relocate the logs, I’m not interested in that, just disabling..

Any ideas?
