Package: rsyslog Version: 8.1901.0-1 Severity: wishlist
Using syslog it is easy to write a few GBytes/hour logfiles, e.g. via
#954065, so I would suggest to run the logrotate for rsyslog hourly
and to set
maxsize 1G
per default. In the new configuration the "daily" and "weekly" in
/etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog still provides daily and weekly log file
roration for 99.9% of all cases, but for the remaining 0.1% the
maxsize is essential to not end up in a full partition for /var/log.
