Solaris 10 massive SMF log file

I found that there was a SMF log file: /var/svc/log/milestone-multi-user-server:default.log.0 which occupied around 19G bytes.
Please help me how to purge this massive file.
Can I just use cat /dev/null > /var/svc/log/milesto..... to this file without any interruption to a non-stop system?
Please Help.
