I'm trying to figure out how to craft my SetEnvIf's in my apache config so that the server hard disk isn't spinning 24/7 over log entries.

What I want to do is disable logging for all domains and subdomains the server has DNS records for, however, on the example.com domain, I want it where requests to the root (a.k.a. example.com/) not be logged since that's frequently accessed.

This is what I have so far as httpd.conf code but I'm not sure how to modify it to satisfy my criteria above.

SetEnvIf Host "^example.com$" nolog
SetEnvIf Request_URI !/ !nolog
SetEnvIf Host "^???$" nolog
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/access_log common env=!nolog


Later I may think about no longer logging PHP file access as I don't want potential hackers to flood my log files anymore.

How do I adjust my code to satisfy my requirements?
