I am using syslog-ng to collect the logs from different machines. I want to configure the log rotation policy. I want to know How to configure the log rotation policy? Does syslog-ng supports it? is there any relation between syslog-ng and log rotation ?
I was searching it on google and I found one example ( given below ). i want to know what is the role of syslog-ng in log rotation ? I think log rotataion is not part of syslog-ng features. Can you please suggest me the best way for log rotation?
Hi, Personally I prefer to arrange log rotation based on the file size rather than some fixed time interval, so I have added that feature to syslog-ng. If anyone is interested I can explain in more details and post the patch. -- Sergei.
