LogRotate – A Great Built-In Linux Utility To Handle Large Log Files
Logrotate is the linux’s utility which lets you rotate or remove the large log file. If you monitor log files of mailserver or system logs then you might have noticed that after some particular time, old log file is renamed and compressed to something like .old etc. This is because most of the server level logs are configured to be compressed via logrotate utility.
‘The configuration file for logroate is located in /ect/logrotate.conf. Here you will find the files which should be rotated on the particular. Most of the logs are rorated on weekely or monthly basis. But if your system generates too many logs then you can change the configuration of the logs in this file to be roated daily.
Okay, let me show you standard contents of logrotate.conf file to clarify the concept.
———
# see “man logrotate” for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly
# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4
# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create
# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress
# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d
# no packages own wtmp — we’ll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
minsize 1M
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}
# system-specific logs may be also be configured here.
———
Now the above mentioned contents are rotating /var/log/wtmp, file only. Now if you wish the system to rotate /var/log/messages file on weekely basis then add the following lines to /etc/logrotate.conf file.
——
/var/log/messages {
weekely
minsize 1M
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}
————
Lets be more clear: the weekely means, system will rotate logs of /var/log/messages file on each week, minsize means that system will rotate logs if the size of the file is greater than this. Other parameters are default one, leave them as it is.Cheers!
