Hi
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?
content of
/etc/logrotate.d/directadmin:
/var/log/directadmin/*.log
{
weekly
size=1M
rotate=0
create 0644 diradmin
diradmin
sharedscripts
postrotate
find /var/log/directadmin -name
"20*log*" -mtime +7 -exec /bin/rm -f {} \;
find /var/log/directadmin -name
"20*log.?" -exec /bin/rm -f {} \;
endscript
}
