compress log files
This command helps reduce the size of log files and keeps server resources optimized. The compress-log-files command compresses log files from the /Portals/_default/Logs/ directory, focusing only on the of files from the previous month. If found, the command archives them into a zip file named Logs-YYYYmm.zip, where YYYY is the year and mm is the two-digit month.
The logic includes complementary log files, such as installation and failure logs, if they exist.
After, the logic will then delete any failure log files after they are archived.
There is a complimentary scheduled job that is automatically installed and configured for you, making this command only necessary if the job is disabled or failed for some reason. The command can be used on-demand in these kinds of use cases. This command ignores log files created before the installation of the scheduled job.
