Title: Logrotate: 2 questions
We have a RH Linux 7.3 web server that has what I believe to be a default setup of logrotate running each night.
My first question is: what is the purpose of the default installation/setup of logrotate? What is it rotating? I ask because I am getting frustrated
es the file it sends the -HUP to the program that logs to the
file. If that program hangs maybe that would cause logrotate to hang.

very long time to run and use a lot of resources. It shows up as using
over 94% of the CPU time in Running Processes (Webmin). Plus to make
matters worse, it doesn’t complete before the next instance run
