# Description:  This script will be used to move all the log files from the default SYSTEMDRIVE to
#                   a drive of your choosing (in this case, D:\EventLogs).  We use this for non-persistent
#                   vDisks with a persistent write cache to keep these logs for troubleshooting purposes.
#
# ===========================================================================================================


# Change D:\EventLogs to some other destination if required.
$allLogs = Get-WinEvent -ListLog *
foreach ($logs in $allLogs) {
 $filename = split-path $logs.LogFilePath -leaf
 $logs.LogFilePath = “D:\EventLogs\$filename”
 $logs.SaveChanges()
