1st Method
---------------

You can redirect .out logs to the .log file and managed .log via admin console.
[ console > your_server > under logging tab ]

Fot this - 

Go to to YOUR_DOMAIN/bin/nodemanager
Take a backup of your existing wlscontrol.sh
Edit it and change OutFile=$ServerDir/logs/$ServerName.out to OutFile=$ServerDir/logs/$ServerName.log

2nd Method
-----------------

on Linux, You can change OS parameters in /etc/logrotate.conf file 

Append below lines at the end

<out_log_file_dir_path>/*.out
{
copytruncate
rotate 4
size=500Mb

OR

Use command "logrotate" using cron to achieve, You can use it with copytruncate to rotate logs.
