There was a problem hiding this comment.
Manually run the command got error:
admin@vlab-01:~$ sudo find /var/log/ -mtime +1 '*.gz' | sudo xargs rm -f
find: paths must precede expression: `*.gz'
Can you check?

…alysis (sonic-net#3670) Remove more than one day logs from /var/log dir inside DUT. Before tests, some DUTs can have much older files which are not removed as part of present cleanup steps. These files lead to issues with log_analyzer processing. Added an extra step for files cleanup as part of test_pretest::test_cleanup_testbed

Approach
What is the motivation for this PR?
Before tests, some DUTs can have much older files which are not removed as part of present cleanup steps.
These files lead to issues with log_analyzer processing. Examples include backup files and user created debug files:
/var/log/swss/sairedis.rec.1.gz-2021031300.backupHow did you do it?
Added an extra step for files cleanup as part of test_pretest::test_cleanup_testbed
How did you verify/test it?
With modification, the backup and older files are removed from /var/log dir
Any platform specific information?
Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
