Patch Set 1: (5 inline comments) .................................................... File packaging/etc/logrotate.d/ovirt-engine.in Line 1: "@ENGINE_LOG@/engine.log" "@ENGINE_LOG@/server.log" { OK. Details below. Just mentioning the obvious: The default is to keep 4 weeks of logs. Line 2: minsize 10M Line 3: size 100M Line 4: missingok Line 5: copytruncate Line 1: "@ENGINE_LOG@/engine.log" "@ENGINE_LOG@/server.log" { Line 2: minsize 10M Line 3: size 100M Why? I almost never found the size/minsize options useful. On a very busy server this might (?) make you keep less, perhaps much less than 4 weeks. logrotate runs daily, so you might keep only 5 days, 100MB each. Line 4: missingok Line 5: copytruncate Line 6: rotate 5 Line 7: compress Line 1: "@ENGINE_LOG@/engine.log" "@ENGINE_LOG@/server.log" { Line 2: minsize 10M Line 3: size 100M Line 4: missingok Is that actually reasonable that it will not exist? If not, you might remove 'missingok' and so make the cron alert, for free. Line 5: copytruncate Line 6: rotate 5 Line 7: compress Line 8: } Line 1: "@ENGINE_LOG@/engine.log" "@ENGINE_LOG@/server.log" { Line 2: minsize 10M Line 3: size 100M Line 4: missingok Line 5: copytruncate Isn't it possible/reasonable to restart it, or somehow tell it to close and open the log? Line 6: rotate 5 Line 7: compress Line 8: } Line 9: Line 12: missingok Line 13: rotate 2 Line 14: compress Line 15: postrotate Line 16: rm -f "$1" IIRC the default will keep it for 4 weeks. Isn't that enough? Also, I do not see any specific reason to delete it, if for some reason it's not deleted. It will waste a small storage space and will have the potential to ease debugging issues also in later times.
