Under /var/stm there is a file called logs and this is very
large.Could anyone advise me on the because i wish to null it and i beleive it is tied to a monitoring tool.

These files are written to when an hardware event happens. You need to read it before you delete it, you might have a hardware failure that you don't know about. As I remember it by going into stm, it overwrites the file anyway, so if you want to keep it you should tell stm to start writing to a new log (You'll have to look this bit up).
