If you know what you are doing and have a pretty good reason to do it, this is one way to do it.

ln -fs /dev/null /var/log/nginx/error.log ln -fs /dev/null /var/log/nginx/vhost-error_log

the command will clear the content of the files and create a junction to “/dev/null”. All further logs will be sent to blackhole (discarded).

(A) Few days before moving your site to the new server, implement cloudflare on your site. (i.e if you are not already using it)

http://www.cloudflare.com/

Its free and the process is pretty straightforward.

Switch to Cloudflare nameservers and wait for 2-3 days for DNS propagation.

(B) Move your site to new server. database driven sites (wordpress, vbulletin) should be put into read only mode before moving.

(C) Update cloudflare DNS settings to reflect the IP of your new server.

After that if you do not wish to use cloudflare just update nameservers at your domain registrants but DO NOT More >
