There are several large DMQ$EVL_nnnn_nnnnnn.log files. Anyone know if these files can be deleted without restarting DMQ, i.e. will DMQ simply create a new log file and start writing to it?

I dont have my screen in front of me, but I remember a management option to roll over the Event logs. Have a look around.

Thank you.
