Manual Flushing of Alarm Log File
If the automatic maintenance of the alarm log file has to be disabled for any reason, or if the growth of the file over a period of 24 hours is still not acceptable, the flushing of the alarm log file can be triggered manually. The command must be executed by an administrator.
 
/opt/nem/bin/private/logcycle
 
This either creates the history file for the current day with a time stamp if it does not exist, or it appends the contents of the alarms.txt file to the existing history file.

Please note: 
At the same time as the alarm log file, the activity log file is also flushed and an activity history file created (if required) according to the same naming rules.
