尽管我不喜欢它
但不可否认logrotate还是具有足够的广泛性和应用
squid httpd proftpd ...
等等这些大服务
log的增长是恐怖的
logrotate不好的地方就在于它是copy方式处理
而我宁愿mv改名 再送一个HUP信号过去
如果采用 logrotate 的话 需要写一个配置文件
具体配置文件怎么写 可以 man logrotate 查看
里面有重足的解释和样例
LOGROTATE(8) System Administrator's Manual LOGROTATE(8)
NAME
logrotate - rotates, compresses, and mails system logs
SYNOPSIS
logrotate [-dv] [-f|--force] [-s|--state file] config_file+
......
/etc/logrotate.conf 和 /etc/logrotate.d/ 是默认的配置文件和目录
% cat /etc/logrotate.conf
# 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
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}
% cat /etc/logrotate.d/httpd
/var/log/httpd/*log {
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
}
这是我改用"mv 结合 squid 自身的 rotate 之前曾用过的logrotate处理方式
/usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/squid/logrotate.conf
% cat /etc/squid/logrotate.conf
/opt/old_access/access.log.bak {
daily
rotate 79
olddir /opt/old_access
size 1M
copytruncate
compress
notifempty
missingok
}
这是另一个
/opt/ipcn/proxy/log/proxy.log {
rotate 9
missingok
size=100M
create 0644
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/proxy/proxy.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
}
如今 squid apache proftpd ... 我都尽量手工去mv 然后HUP 达到rotate的目的
不太爱用 logrotate了
写一下以表示对其历史地位的尊重
logrotate on demand~
