3.12. Software Collection logrotate Support
With your Software Collection or an application associated with your Software Collection, you can manage log files with the logrotate program.
Procedure 3.9. Managing log files with logrotate
- To manage your log files with logrotate, place a custom logrotate file for your Software Collection in the system directory for the logrotate jobs
/etc/logrotate.d/
.For example, create the following file:%{?scl_prefix}logrotate
- Ensure that the contents of the
logrotate
file follow the standardlogrotate
file format as follows:/opt/provider/software_collection/var/log/your_application_name.log { missingok notifempty size 30k yearly create 0600 root root }
- Add the file to your spec file of the Software Collection package:
SOURCE2: %{?scl_prefix}logrotate
- Install the file into the system directory
/etc/logrotate.d/
by adjusting the%install
section of the Software Collection package's spec file:%install install -p -c -m 644 %{SOURCE2} $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{?scl:%_root_sysconfdir}%{!?scl:%_sysconfdir}/logrotate.d/
