@Pattarachai,

The actual .log file is only allowed to accumulate to a certain size and will then rotate the files, keeping a subset so that TAC or yourself can view heretic logs if needed. These files only contain monitoring and service logs, so they can be deleted if you don't want them. 

If you are working with TAC on any ongoing issues you might want to keep them until you upload the tech support file to TAC, as these files are all included. 

 

If you don't need them then feel free to delete all of them with a .1, .2, .3, or .old file. 

delete debug-log mp-log file *.1
delete debug-log mp-log file *.2
delete debug-log mp-log file *.3
delete debug-log mp-log file *.old
