Logrotate Tutorial: How to Install and Setup Logrotate on Linux

Описание: In IT, logs bring a lot of benefits to your computer

If something goes wrong, check the logs, they'll probably tell you what caused the problem

If someone is trying to hack into your computer, check the logs, they'll probably show you the signs

Although if you aren't monitoring disk space, log files that keep growing can of course crash your computer...apparently

Thankfully you can install logrotate on Linux computers to well, rotate your log files and reduce the chances of a computer running out of disk space

Oddly enough logs rarely actually get read, because you've got better things to do

But hey, the more automation you can add the better

In this video, we cover:

How to install logrotate on Alpine and Debian.

How to create your own logrotate rules.

How to re-schedule logorate for Cron and Systemd.
